“The intent was to make the indoor spaces look like the outdoors,” says Greico. “It’s an open floor plan concept, so it’s pretty flexible. The home is really divided into three sections, the middle area is public and then you have the private areas with the beds and baths. The great room has walls of glass all opening to the outdoors. We actually used the mass of the house to give more privacy to the backyard.”
