Located in downtown Oakland’s Lakeside neighborhood, the Lydian project stands at 84-feet
high and 7-stories tall. This multi-family, luxury project specified our VX Screen 3000 with a 1%
openness factor in the bedrooms and our VX Screen 3000 5% in the common areas. This allowed residents the ability to flood their spaces with natural light, while also maintaining autonomy and privacy. For motorization, we utilized our VTi® Celtic Quick Connect Motors for added
versatility and precision, coupled with our 3” Flat Fascia System and VTX 20 Clutch.

With adjacent neighbors within a fairly dense section of Paradise Valley, Arizona, C.P. Drewett sought to provide a tranquil retreat for a new-to-the-Valley surgeon and his family who were seeking the modernism they loved though had never lived in. With a goal of consuming all possible site lines and views while maintaining autonomy, a portion of the house — including the entry, office, and master bedroom wing — is subterranean. This subterranean nature of the home provides interior grandeur for guests but offers a welcoming and humble approach, fully satisfying the clients requests.
While the lot has an east-west orientation, the home was designed to capture mainly north and south light which is more desirable and soothing. The architecture’s interior loftiness is created with overlapping, undulating planes of plaster, glass, and steel. The woven nature of horizontal planes throughout the living spaces provides an uplifting sense, inviting a symphony of light to enter the space. The more voluminous public spaces are comprised of stone-clad massing elements which convert into a desert pavilion embracing the outdoor spaces. Every room opens to exterior spaces providing a dramatic embrace of home to natural environment.

The material palette began with a rich, tonal, large-format Quartzite stone cladding. The stone’s tones gaveforth the rest of the material palette including a champagne-colored metal fascia, a tonal stucco system, and ceilings clad with hemlock, a tight-grained but softer wood that was tonally perfect with the rest of the materials. The interior case goods and wood-wrapped openings further contribute to the tonal harmony of architecture and materials.

Located on a beach on the San Francisco Bay, the house is conceived as a pin-wheel composition of 4 pavilions around an interior courtyard. In order to minimize the visual impact, the 900 sq mt building develops on one floor gradually stepping down towards the beach. The environmental oriented design includes strategies for natural ventilation, passive solar energy and 100% electrical energy autonomy supported by an array of 110 sq. mt of photovoltaic cells mounted on the roof and on solar glass canopies. Glass sliding doors and windows, wood slats ventilated walls and copper roofing constitute the exterior skin of the building.

With nearly 14,000 square feet of transparent planar architecture, In Plane Sight, encapsulates — by a horizontal bridge-like architectural form — 180 degree views of Paradise Valley, iconic Camelback Mountain, the city of Phoenix, and its surrounding mountain ranges.
Large format wall cladding, wood ceilings, and an enviable glazing package produce an elegant, modernist hillside composition.
The challenges of this 1.25 acre site were few: a site elevation change exceeding 45 feet and an existing older home which was demolished. The client program was straightforward: modern and view-capturing with equal parts indoor and outdoor living spaces.
Though largely open, the architecture has a remarkable sense of spatial arrival and autonomy. A glass entry door provides a glimpse of a private bridge connecting master suite to outdoor living, highlights the vista beyond, and creates a sense of hovering above a descending landscape. Indoor living spaces enveloped by pocketing glass doors open to outdoor paradise.
The raised peninsula pool, which seemingly levitates above the ground floor plane, becomes a centerpiece for the inspiring outdoor living environment and the connection point between lower level entertainment spaces (home theater and bar) and upper outdoor spaces.

Le projet consistait à concevoir et réaliser une pergola en acier thermolaqué, parfaitement adaptée aux besoins spécifiques du client. Cette structure, installée dans le jardin d'une maison particulière, a été pensée pour accueillir des panneaux solaires intégrés. L’objectif principal était d’offrir une double fonctionnalité : un espace extérieur ombragé et agréable sur une terrasse existante bois, tout en optimisant l’autonomie énergétique du foyer grâce à la production d’énergie renouvelable.
Localisme : sélection de matériaux et d’artisans locaux pour minimiser l’impact environnemental et favoriser l’économie locale. Travail réalisé avec Métallerie HM.

In addition to views, daylighting, and continuing the 1920s Craftsman style, flexibility is priority for this space so that it can grown with the children. This shared bedroom and its closets have been designed so that they can easily be bisected into two separate bedrooms should more autonomy ever be desired. Chandeliers with colorful striping were original to the home and fortunately not only match the wallpaper shown but also came as a set of two.
