The partners of this Future 50 Company in Brentwood, Tennessee, requested a work environment with a distinctive design reflecting their personalities and progressive business model. The 5,200 square foot building is constructed on a highly visible and challenging site previously considered ‘unbuildable’ due to easements, setbacks and grading issues. However, we saw potential in the site’s excellent views to nearby roadways and benefits from its adjacency to a richly landscaped entry to the development.

Ridgetop Residence

Sited atop a hillside, this house commands broad views of the outer Nashville basin, a scenic area southwest of the city. Designed to take advantage of these spectacular views and assimilate indoor-outdoor living, the home is a composition of alternating volumes tied together horizontally with roof overhangs. Organized around a 25-foot-high gallery that connects the ground level from north to south, a series of glass bridges connect private spaces on the upper levels. Two one-story wings that include a lap pool and a garage define a large public entry court.
