Goodman sited the Hollin Homes for maximum privacy—though most of the homes have glass walls, native trees and clever landscaping keep things concealed. Photograph by Kathleen Bridges.

Resident/architect Tom Kerns redesigned the front of this home, creating an inviting koi-pond patio that is visible from both above and below. Photograph by Kathleen Bridges.

In keeping with Goodman’s philosophy that the home should make use of the land, the hill to the front of this property provides shade and privacy for the outdoor living space. Photograph by Kathleen Bridges.
