Akasha
encompasses the traditions of the West Coast and the Asian Pacific
Rim. Featuring native hand carved totems, fused glass interior windows,
and local ski cable railings, the antique furnishings from India and
China blends these cultures into a unique eclectic style, with every
finishing detail custom designed.
Childhood memories of India are brought to life utilizing Indian antiques,
Persian carpets, and a Rosewood Pedestal four-poster bed with a hemp
canopy. The dining room features an antique Tikkat Table, previously
a stage for musicians entertaining during feasts.
Individually sculpted/fused interior windows leading to the spa, reflect
the spirit of the totems around the pool which represent the ancient
medicine wheel. The 400 year-old ancient cedar serves as a focal point
for the central curved stairwell, featuring the cable railing recycled
from Whistler Mountain. Curved walls and windows position the home
to take advantage of view-scapes and privacy, and integrate the interior
with the natural environment. |
