Home Design Embraces the View
Disappearing act: The careful design of this house encourages visitors to escape into a stunning vista as the house itself "vanishes."
Just like the magician’s reveal, everything becomes clear when you open the front door in this home. You are almost immediately greeted with a sweeping view of the Bay. One gets the sense that the house almost disappears and lets you experience the moment. This type of “effortless” or seamless design is really quite difficult to achieve, careful attention to scale, materials, and seamless construction execution all come into play.
The View from the Street and the Courtyard serve to build the magical experience of the space.
