Little John Residence

Designed for a steep sloping site, the Little John Residence is a large modern home set in a historic in-town neighborhood of Atlanta, Georgia. The site overlooks the Ansley Golf Course, providing sweeping views of the surrounding landscape. The project comprises 6,000 SF situated on three floors, together with an infinity edge pool and cabana that are situated at the center of the spatial organization. The owners desired a welcoming house for entertaining that could also serve as a quiet retreat from their hectic work schedules. The goal as to create a residence that reads simultaneously as home and resort. They wanted to take advantage of the unique site nestled between a private drive and public street with a dramatic view, creating a system of spaces that fluctuates between extroverted and introverted, erasing the boundary between inside and outside.
