Home built by JMA (Jim Murphy and Associates). Photo credit: Michael O'Callahan.

The owner of this sparkling gem is renowned San Francisco Bay area architect Darryl Roberson, FAIA, who designed this dream home for property he and his wife purchased over twenty years ago. The home’s exterior veneer features Rheinzink zinc tile siding. Stone harvested from the building site was used for the home and landscape retaining walls.

Combined with stucco, extensive storefront windows and doors and a cool roof, the contemporary home and outdoor terrace continued our work for this owner — a guest house and observatory were completed in 1996.

There is a sense of detachment from the main building. Yet, it is connected. Makes the home office psychologically functional too.
