Casa Nora floats out over a steep jungle ravine, its terrace and infinity pool cantilevered beneath a black steel pergola so the treetops seem to begin at the deck's edge. Inside, polished concrete floors and warm wood cabinetry ground an open living, dining, and kitchen space that slides fully away to the covered terrace and the valley view. A honed dark-stone island fronted in white hexagonal tile anchors the kitchen, while an open-tread steel-and-wood stair threads up through the volume. Furnished simply in white, teak, and plaster tones, the home stays quiet and lets the landscape lead.
