Vint Residence

Encinitas, California

Built around a central court, this house was designed to enhance connection to its surrounding nature. The domes of the house were built with a very unique construction technique: massive balloons were blown up, wrapped with structural rebar, and sprayed with concrete. A white plaster finish was added along with sculpted accents on the walls and ceilings. The finish result is an organic, airy, and stunning interior space.
