Decorative weathered steel panels screen the auto court from the rest of the property and direct guests toward the courtyard and ocean views beyond. The courtyard and surrounding outdoor spaces have been designed by landscaping firm Lutsko Associates. At the end of the walkway that runs alongside the home, there’s a large great room that completely opens up to the outdoors. Central to the great room is a sitting area that’s been furnished with five low armchairs and a round coffee table, all of which are positioned below a chandelier.

Get our daily newsletter: Timber House M-M by Tuomas Siitonen wraps around a sheltered garden. This wooden home in Helsinki by Finnish architect Tuomas Siitonen has a roof that dips in the middle to allow views across it and a kinked plan that wraps around a secluded garden (+ slideshow). Constructed on a sloping plot in the garden of a house occupied by the client's parents, the building was designed by Siitonen to provide two separate apartments - one for a couple and their two children, and another for the children's great-grandmother.

The ground floor contains an accessible apartment for the great-grandmother, while a larger apartment for the family occupies the two upper storeys. "The brief was to design an inspiring and environmentally sensible house incorporating a separate flat for a grandmother, or for example to be used by one of the children in the future," Siitonen told Dezeen.
