POOL AND PAVILION Done in collaboration with artist James Turrell and landscape architect Tom Leader Studio, the project integrates an outdoor dining pavilion, pool house, two Skyscape sculptures and a large infinity-edged pool. One sculpture incorporates a square opening in a 1,800-square-foot horizontal plane above the dining terrace supported by four slender steel columns. The second sculpture, made of fiberglass in the form of a 16-foot cube, rests on the surface of the pool (it is entered by submerging in the water). The pool house, a small-scale aluminum-clad structure, contains private changing rooms and a stainless-steel kitchen.
It seems to dissolve into the landscape. New York Times Magazine 12/02/07 Under the canopy or in the cube, all you see is the play of light... the 15-foot-high, 1,800-square-foot canopy seems to float free in space. San Francisco Chronicle Magazine 04/13/08
