DSDG ARCHITECTS

Inspired by local mid-century modern architecture, the owner wanted a multi-tiered home re-imagined with contemporary design technologies. The focus on the street front elevation evolved by using the building as the visual buffer for an open courtyard style house and the consequent plan unfolds behind the front façade. At 2,750 square feet, the perceived height comes from a clerestoried great room cascading down to a cantilevered roof recessed entry progression. A floating roof element is enhanced with ribbon windows atop an oyster shell imbued tabby stucco feature wall.
