SF BAY | HILLSIDE HOUSE

Occupying a six acre hillside parcel and constrained by access and local regulation, the Hillside House unfolds down an oak studded slope. The structure cuts itself into the land allowing discreet access from the top and concealing the two additional floors below from street view. The middle level houses the public activities of the home and cantilevers a glassy corner into the canopy of an ancient coastal oak tree. The dark cedar wood rainscreen skin allows the bulk of the house to recede into the groves and help to break down the scale of the house.

Nomad House

The location of the Nomad house is on Lefkada, specifically at the southern tip of the island. In this location, the hills characteristic of the island gradually disappear into the sea.

The lower container would house the living room with a kitchen, sleeping area, and bathroom. This space would not be divide... Mais

Hutton Drive 2641

O site Como especialistas em design de encostas, a equipa da Whipple Russell por vezes considera necessário mover montanhas – ou pelo menos parte de uma delas, para criar uma casa moderna, espaçosa e intimista. Para atingir estes objetivos na nossa casa em Hutton, primeiro cortámos a encosta traseira para maximizar o espaço do quintal e posicionar a casa mais longe da rua na frente.
