Klopf Architecture, Arterra Landscape Architects, and Flegels Construction updated a classic Eichler open, indoor-outdoor home. Expanding on the original walls of glass and connection to nature that is common in mid-century modern homes. The completely openable walls allow the homeowners to truly open up the living space of the house, transforming it into an open air pavilion, extending the living area outdoors to the private side yards, and taking maximum advantage of indoor-outdoor living opportunities. Taking the concept of borrowed landscape from traditional Japanese architecture, the fountain, concrete bench wall, and natural landscaping bound the indoor-outdoor space. The Truly Open Eichler is a remodeled single-family house in Palo Alto. This 1,712 square foot, 3 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom is located in the heart of the Silicon Valley.

The aged mansard has almost been forgotten and abundant. With interesting internal geometry and the grand focal point of a centrally placed window, the quirky design opportunities were endless.
The idea was to play with the complex geometry of the mansard’s walls, angles and most importantly the sharp ceiling drop. An optical illusion effect of black and white stripes has been adapted to even out sharp angles of the walls, giving the mansard an airy feel.
The mansards balance is maintained by parallel white walls, which offset the optical illusion effect. Oak furnishings and flooring bring the final soft touch to the cool interior of the mansard, adding just enough warmth to make it feel homely again.
