Villa Karuna
TRANCAS CANYON ESTATES
In Karuna, we grow to have a balanced compassion for those around us.
Balanced Compassion
Living with compassion is to practice goodwill towards others and self-reflect on one’s own challenges. Villa Karuna embodies its Vihara of compassion through ideas of dissolved boundaries and reflection. Softened edges and smooth, reflective surfaces are prevalent throughout the design of the home. The entry procession through the home visually terminates in a dramatic 40’ reflecting pool; the perfect focus from this home’s meditation pavilion. The interiors palette and landscape selection are focused on a red color story that is indicative of the Karuna Vihara. Warm hues are brought in through natural limestones, rich burgundy fabrics, and pops of Red Velvet Achillea in the landscape.
