Yanki and Yael (pictured), both from Israel, have lived in idyllic locales before—notably a home in Usonia, the forested community planned by Frank Lloyd Wright and his followers—but none, in their estimation, compares to this one. In the kitchen, a Wall Lamp by Workstead hangs above the Terrazzo countertops by Kaza.
The kitchen island features a top made from concrete and rimu, a native New Zealand timber. As rimu is no longer harvested, the piece was pulled from a swamp and is potentially around 1,000 years old. The split between the concrete and timber reflects the split between the flooring materials. “The faceted form of the island ties into our concept and links to the fractured forms on the exterior of the house,” says Craig.

A pantry and painting studio are tucked behind the kitchen, which is outfitted with black granite counters and oak cabinetry.
Brick, paired with concrete and wood, creates an organic warmth throughout this Spanish home.
To add texture in the custom kitchen, Woods covered some of the cabinets and the wall with American oak battens.
