​The Master Suite encompasses a great variety of rooms and spaces, beginning with its own separate entrance chamber from the outdoors. 

Then there is the reading nook (shown left) as well as the bedroom itself, which fits a king bed. Off of the bedroom through the book-wall tunnel are found two smaller rooms: the study and the meditation room, which can be combined into one larger study if you prefer. 

The interior garden, as well, is part of the Master Suite, which lets Eastern light into the bedroom and the other adjacent spaces. The service functions are described below.

Finally there is the series of rooms in the service galley. Down a short hall is a recess for a sculpture. Then to one side, the changing room and walk in closet, and to the other, both vanities, the water closet, and finally the bathing room. The interior shot is taken from the walk-in closet, looking toward the tiled bathing room with the walk in shower and soaking tub. ​
