Crosby Residence Dog Trot

The Crosby's dog trot is true to the traditional form of two pens and a passage. The foyer is the dog trot with the master bedroom to the left and the great room in the "pen" on the right. The foyer has a custom gate in the front with a similarly detailed folding wall on the back. The entire house opens to a large terrace and swimming pool that overlooks tidal marshes and creeks. The large outdoor living space has a full outdoor kitchen and retractable screens. All photographs by John McManus

Custom Doors

These doors have an old map of Hawaii on them. They were designed as a screen for a stage set. We re-worked them as folding doors. They are normally kept shut and only opened to reveal the dining room when the owner has a dinner party. Very dramatic!
