Extension d’une villa typique du style balnéaire 1900, le projet apporte toutes les qualités d’espace et d’ouverture d’une architecture contemporaine. Le volume principal est traité comme un objet, entièrement habillé de bardeaux de zinc façonnés sur-mesure, dont le calepinage rappelle la pierre de la maison ancienne. La mise au point des nombreux détails de construction et leur réalisation ont nécessité un véritable travail d’orfèvrerie. Posée sur un soubassement sombre, l’extension est comme suspendue. De nombreuses ouvertures éclairent les volumes intérieurs, qui sont ainsi baignés de lumière tout au long de la journée et bénéficient de larges vues sur le jardin. La structure de l’extension est en ossature bois pour la partie supérieure et béton pour la partie inférieure. Son isolation écologique renforcée est recouverte d’une peau en zinc pré-patiné quartz pour les façades et anthracite pour la toiture. Tous les détails de façade, menuiserie, garde-corps, ainsi que la cheminée en acier et céramique ont été dessinés par l’agence -- Crédits : FELD Architecture

Marc Fowler - Kitchen & Bathroom shots Clerestory windows across the top of the vanity, combined with the long vertical window, create strong architectural lines while allowing for form and function to flow together. The vanity, made of natural anigre, float above the limestone tile floor. Natural, and neutral finishes throughout create a calming backdrop to the nature of the outdoors. Small natural stone, mosaic, listello tile flow up the shower walls and onto the ceiling. The sculptural, teak bench moves between the shower/steam shower and the make up area.

This is an example of a modern bedroom in Burlington with white walls, concrete floors and a wood stove.

This bathroom was introduced into an 1853 Greek Revival row house. The home owners desired modern amenities like radiant floor heating, a steam shower, and a towel warmer. But they also wanted the space to match the period charm of their older home. A large glass-encased shower stall is the central player in the new bathroom. Lined with 3" x 6" white subway tile and fully enclosed by glass, the shower is bright and welcoming. And then the transom window at the top is closed, steam jets lining the shower create a relaxing spa. Although placed on an interior wall, the new bath is filled with abundant natural light, thanks to transom windows which welcome sunshine from the hallway. Photos by Shelly Harrison.

Klopf Architecture and Outer space Landscape Architects designed a new warm, modern, open, indoor-outdoor home in Los Altos, California. Inspired by mid-century modern homes but looking for something completely new and custom, the owners, a couple with two children, bought an older ranch style home with the intention of replacing it. Created on a grid, the house is designed to be at rest with differentiated spaces for activities; living, playing, cooking, dining and a piano space. The low-sloping gable roof over the great room brings a grand feeling to the space. The clerestory windows at the high sloping roof make the grand space light and airy. Upon entering the house, an open atrium entry in the middle of the house provides light and nature to the great room. The Heath tile wall at the back of the atrium blocks direct view of the rear yard from the entry door for privacy. The bedrooms, bathrooms, play room and the sitting room are under flat wing-like roofs that balance on either side of the low sloping gable roof of the main space. Large sliding glass panels and pocketing glass doors foster openness to the front and back yards. In the front there is a fenced-in play space connected to the play room, creating an indoor-outdoor play space that could change in use over the years. The play room can also be closed off from the great room with a large pocketing door. In the rear, everything opens up to a deck overlooking a pool where the family can come together outdoors. Wood siding travels from exterior to interior, accentuating the indoor-outdoor nature of the house. Where the exterior siding doesn’t come inside, a palette of white oak floors, white walls, walnut cabinetry, and dark window frames ties all the spaces together to create a uniform feeling and flow throughout the house. The custom cabinetry matches the minimal joinery of the rest of the house, a trim-less, minimal appearance. Wood siding was mitered in the corners, including where siding meets the interior drywall. Wall materials were held up off the floor with a minimal reveal. This tight detailing gives a sense of cleanliness to the house. The garage door of the house is completely flush and of the same material as the garage wall, de-emphasizing the garage door and making the street presentation of the house kinder to the neighborhood. The house is akin to a custom, modern-day Eichler home in many ways. Inspired by mid-century modern homes with today’s materials, approaches, standards, and technologies. The goals were to create an indoor-outdoor home that was energy-efficient, light and flexible for young children to grow. This 3,000 square foot, 3 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom new house is located in Los Altos in the heart of the Silicon Valley. Klopf Architecture Project Team: John Klopf, AIA, and Chuang-Ming Liu
