The complete custom home includes a two story living room and second floor hopper windows for natural ventilation, fireplace and a cantilevered steel stair  leading up from the interior to the exterior and up to the roof deck. Bamboo built-ins and kitchen cabinetry compliment the steel stair and catwalk. Custom interior and exterior furniture in collaboration with Lagomorph Design, Chicago.
