Quietly commanding ocean and mountain views on Maui's north shore sits an unforgettably unique architecture that speaks volumes with its subtlety. A residence unlike any other. Mindful of utilizing reclaimed, recycled and recyclable materials, this self-powered residence defines what it means to live lightly upon the land. Upon entering the home, you decide, Do I slide back the barn door created from 80-year old reclaimed wood to enter the utilitarian rooms of the house? Do I veer to the right to enter what is clearly a private refuge? Do I continue forward to approach the floor-to-ceiling glass, taking in the land and views? Do I - as the floating stairs beckon - glide to the top of the stairs, drinking in the crisp, clean, bright, uncluttered order offered by the entire floor's design? The architect and the homeowner were in synch while designing the home's purpose-driven philosophy, the en-suite bathrooms feature cabinetry crafted from that same 80-year old reclaimed wood. The home's generous second-floor open spaces take advantage of the tradewinds and share them throughout the home through ceiling fans powered by photovoltaic gear. Lighting is LED. Plumbing is low flow. Appliances consume minimal power. A beautiful bright new and modern home where the carbon footprint is all but nil. Maui Luxury with Global Appeal
