This vision of a remodel of an existing home located along a sloped street in San Francisco adapts the original design to its present-day context. Multiple storeys allows for a secondary dwelling unit on the lower level. Separation of entry points both strengthens and forges new ties with the street. A wood scrim clad in cedar slats marks the main entry as as short walkway connects to the primary living level. The secondary access to the suite below is accessed near the front overhead garage door. The exterior has a a restrained finish palette of soft white render, combined with ebony trim honouring the Bay Area’s legacy of craftsmanship. A recessed portion at the front forms a sheltered balcony that overlooks the street, while the upper level takes maximum advantage of stunning views. :: thirdstone inc.
