This facade renovation began with a desire to introduce new layers of material to an existing single family home in Huntington Beach. Horizontal wood louvers shade the southern exposure while creating a privacy screen for a new window. Horizontal Ipe siding was chosen in the end. The entrance is accentuated by an orange door to introduce playfulness to the design. The layering of materials continue into the landscape as staggered cast-in-place concrete steps lead down the front yard.
