Reverse Shed Eichler
This project is part tear-down, part remodel. The original L-shaped plan allowed the living/ dining/ kitchen wing to be completely re-built while retaining the shell of the bedroom wing virtually intact. The rebuilt entertainment wing was enlarged 50% and covered with a low-slope reverse-shed roof sloping from eleven to thirteen feet. The shed roof floats on a continuous glass clerestory with eight foot transom. Cantilevered steel frames support wood roof beams with eaves of up to ten feet. An interior glass clerestory separates the kitchen and livingroom for sound control. A wall-to-wall skylight illuminates the north wall of the kitchen/family room. New additions at the back of the house add several “sliding” wall planes, where interior walls continue past full-height windows to the exterior, complimenting the typical Eichler indoor-outdoor ceiling and floor planes. The existing bedroom wing has been re-configured on the interior, changing three small bedrooms into two larger ones, and adding a guest suite in part of the original garage. A previous den addition provided the perfect spot for a large master ensuite bath and walk-in closet. Natural materials predominate, with fir ceilings, limestone veneer fireplace walls, anigre veneer cabinets, fir sliding windows and interior doors, bamboo floors, and concrete patios and walks.

Fabric Architecture
The proposed design incorporated, and extended on, the existing articulated façade. New opposing skillion roofs added balance to the central roof that has now been hidden behind an extended parapet wall. The expanse of masonry is broken through an alternate mix of rendered and clad elements, while new lower flat roofs & window hoods reinforce the horizontal lines of the design.
A new fence and entry portico was designed to reflect to characteristics of the dwelling beyond. With deep recesses and the mixed use of masonry and lightweight cladding, the new design provides a secure and private courtyard to enjoy the winter sun.
