The island presents another curve and offers a welcoming place for guests to chat with the cooks. An oversize skylight fills the rooms with natural light. The cooktop and exhaust hood, tucked into the bump-out addition, sit in front of a large window with views of the backyard.
“We needed to meld the spaces together,” says the architect. French doors between the foyer and living room were removed to create a new opening flanked with angled partitions. The old dining room walls were replaced with a column, clad with Nepalese wood carving, and yet another angular wall. A ceiling trellis of irregular pieces of wood — left in the rain to weather and obtain the right patina — draws the eye to the round window that frames the view of leafy trees. Rather than a sofa, the Dodsons decided on an octagonal coffee table surrounded by upholstered chairs. “One night we had a party and had our guests seated on pillows in a circle,” says Dodson. “The conversation just exploded. The dynamics were completely different.” So, too, the dynamics of their living spaces have changed. “We had a house that was traditional and boring,” says Dodson. “The square footage and the rooms were OK, but it did not reflect our personality at all. Now everything fits together.”
The built-in aquarium is at the edge of the curved stepped hallway that leads to the book-lined dining room. The barn-red wall wraps around a corner and is picked up in the view from the front hall into the kitchen. BACK
