New Additions to Hoover + Hill This project is a continuation of the renovation and updating work Flavin Architects had previously completed at the 1958 Wales house, designed by architect Henry Hoover and Walter Hill. Our clients, a young family, desired more space for guests, a home office, a yoga studio, and covered car parking. The challenge was to respect the architects’ original vision and not to interfere with the perfect cruciform plan of the house. To accomplish these goals, we converted the existing garage/workshop structure into a guest house and then designed a new, separate carport/storage building. The new carport building shares the low-slope gable of the original Hoover structure. The post and beam structure characteristic of Hoover’s design is updated through the use of galvanized steel posts and I beams. The galvanized beams cantilever to support a sheltered walkway leading from the parking to a guest house terrace defined in relationship to the three structures surrounding it. The terrace is paved in slate with a central rain garden. Wood lattice clads the carport, providing good ventilation and letting the building glow like a lantern at night. Our guest house renovation celebrates the unique structural timber ceiling of the original garage. We replaced opaque plywood trusses with a slender cable truss structurally engineered by Webb Structural Services. This cable truss allows for a view of the timber ceiling. A wall of glass facing the courtyard replaced the original garage door. A murphy bed in the rear room enables quick conversion from guest quarters to weight room.

The remodeled primary bathroom. The guest and primary bathroom shared a wall, so the primary was expanded into the guest bathroom space. This shower has tile flooring and wetwall walls.

This getaway for a busy globe-trotting family is close to home for me. It is in beautiful Saint Helena, California, where I have a home myself (See Napa Valley Redux). The clients’ direction was for a more modern aesthetic than the traditional style the architecture might have dictated. We painted the exterior and interior neutral dark hues and filled it with comfortable furniture for entertaining, hanging out and family dinners. Photography: Matthew Millman

The Wimberley provides a beautifully designed open living space. The elegant master suite has his and her closets and an oversized master shower. The two other spacious bedrooms share a Jack and Jill bathroom with separate vanities. The great room features soaring cathedral ceilings with wood truss beams and flows into the kitchen with an eating bar and large walk-in pantry. The Wimberley offers a two car garage that provides extra storage and leads into a large drop zone. The bonus room upstairs adds more versatile space.

This bathroom is truly a family bathroom as it is the only one on the same floor as the bedrooms. It was once a small bathroom and we borrowed some space from the master bedroom to make this space a bit larger. This gave us the opportunity to create a separate shower/water closet so that the vanity area is separate. Photography by 8183 Studio

The master bedroom had a coffered ceiling with 3 large windows, a large master bath and a large walk in closet. The king size bed fit with lots of room to spare. Bedroom 1 and 2 shared a bathroom (jake and jill bathroom) with a door from either side making a great place for the kids to share.
