A new 4-bedroom/3-bathroom house at the heart of the historic Professorville district in Palo Alto. The client has a vision of traditional Spanish Design with turrets and courtyard. Subtle modern touches and details were provided such as crafted eave tails, moustache, tile roof, stone and arch windows. A circular tower in the front resembles organic Spanish architecture. Circulation is focused at the center to reduce hallway area on 2nd floor. Spinal staircase is designed in the middle of the house.
