Fitting into an established neighborhood was a main goal of the 3,000 square foot home that included a underground garage and work shop. On a very small lot, a design of simplified forms separate the mass of the home and visually compliment the neighborhood context. The simple forms and common materials provided for the client’s budget and allowed for a living environment that included natural light that flood the home with brightness while maintaining privacy. The materials and color palette were chosen to compliment the simple composition of forms and minimize maintenance. This home with simple forms and elegant design solutions are timeless.
