As builders, our charge was not only to construct a complex modern house to exacting standards but to install museum-level lighting technology and art display cases and components. Floating English sycamore ceiling panels that incorporate intricate lighting fixtures were machined with slotted connectors that allowed the panels to be locked into place.
Great precision was required to install sliding walls and partitions that allow for the transformation of interior spaces, opening up the kitchen for entertaining, for instance, or closing it down for privacy. One large wall panel that slides to close off the kitchen has a swinging door set within it.
