Services
Sited on a small hill looking northeast across the Alexander Valley, this project is a pastoral retreat -a place for a large family to gather.
The simple roof forms quote the local vernacular barn buildings, and provide a crisp cover for a glass enclosure designed to maximize views and provide excellent daylighting.
The plan cascades gently down from the south bedroom wing, through the main living space and finally brings you to the pool positioned on a promontory directing you to the hills beyond.
The clients desired a versatile, informal family home centered on a bright, day-lit main room that could comfortably accommodate a range of uses as well as objects, furniture and pictures.
White surfaces interplay with natural wood cabinets and floors to add warmth and detail throughout the house.
The main space abuts a private, narrow garden, and multiple pairs of French doors are used to open the building to the exterior space, light and vegetation.
The design of this residence is organized around a two-story central living room, which engages the rear yard while breaking down the separation between indoors and outdoors.
Upstairs, the living room volume is framed by the master bedroom at one end and rooms for three children at the other.
The project incorporates numerous sustainable features, including a central clerestory, which passively cools the house and provides ample indirect natural light into twilight hours.
A series of volumes was inserted at the perimeter of this 60's boomerang plan to remedy the staid quality of the previous interior geometry and make the landscape more tangible from inside.
Pillowed wood siding and large windows inserted at strategic locations add textural relief to the walls.
A neutral white interior envelope, washed with daylight, becomes a background for the clients' art collection.
The garage with studio above acts as a sculptural element and also provides an edge to the entry court.
A classic, stately pre-War house, showing its age, required updating, expansion, and additional daylight.
A glass-and-cedar extension at the back of the property affirms the formal proportions of the front facade, while bringing the building into the next century.
In addition to providing housing for a significant collection of Sherlock Holmes literature and art and an assemblage of early radios and cipher machines, the program includes a book bindery, a quilting studio and a wood shop.
