A raised pressure-treated deck of about 300 square feet off the back of a Caledon house, with black aluminum pickets set in a wood railing frame, wide steps down to the lawn and the underside boarded in.

White posts and dark balusters enclose an elevated deck and gazebo beside a light-sided home. Lattice screening closes the visible underside. The visible boards, edges and surrounding site conditions document the deck at the photographed stage.

Modern exterior home idea in San Francisco

Klopf Architecture completely remodeled this once dark Eichler house in Palo Alto creating a more open, bright and functional family home. The reconfigured great room with new full height windows and sliding glass doors blends the indoors with the newly landscaped patio and seating areas outside. The former galley kitchen was relocated and was opened up to have clear sight lines through the great room and out to the patios and yard, including a large island and a beautiful walnut bar countertop with seating. An integrated small front addition was added allowing for a more spacious master bath and hall bath layouts. With the removal of the old brick fireplace, larger sliding glass doors and multiple skylights now flood the home with natural light. The goals were to work within the Eichler style while creating a more open, indoor-outdoor flow and functional spaces, as well as a more efficient building envelope including a well insulated roof, providing solutions that many Eichler homeowners appreciate. The original entryway lacked unique details; the clients desired a more gracious front approach. The historic Eichler color palette was used to create a modern updated front facade. Durable grey porcelain floor tiles unify the entire home, creating a continuous flow. They, along with white walls, provide a backdrop for the unique elements and materials to stand on their own, such as the brightly colored mosaic tiles, the walnut bar and furniture, and stained ceiling boards. A secondary living space was extended out to the patio with the addition of a bench and additional seating. This Single family Eichler 4 bedroom 2 bath remodel is located in the heart of the Silicon Valley.

By adding slats to the underside of the deck, unique storage area was created. The hidden door on the side gives access to the space.

The exterior got a shoe new makeover including the front entryway. The doors are framed in stone with the wood feature found all around the exterior of the home. Renovated the deck surrounding the exterior and added in beautiful sold wood beams along the underside. Home exterior was redone with Hardi-plank in dark grey with black trim. Pot lights in the deck underside lights the way to the back entrance.

Here you can see the little office that was created from the closet. The sloped ceiling area is the underside of the stairs. The office has a 2 drawer file cabinet, a 3 drawer base and accommodates a printer and laptop

Notice that the plug moulding on the underside of the wall cabinets leaves the backsplash free of outlets.

Our clients wanted to create a backyard that would grow with their young family as well as with their extended family and friends. Entertaining was a huge priority! This family-focused backyard was designed to equally accommodate play and outdoor living/entertaining. The outdoor living spaces needed to accommodate a large number of people – adults and kids. Urban Oasis designed a deck off the back door so that the kitchen could be 36” height, with a bar along the outside edge at 42” for overflow seating. The interior space is approximate 600 sf and accommodates both a large dining table and a comfortable couch and chair set. The fire pit patio includes a seat wall for overflow seating around the fire feature (which doubles as a retaining wall) with ample room for chairs. The artificial turf lawn is spacious enough to accommodate a trampoline and other childhood favorites. Down the road, this area could be used for bocce or other lawn games. The concept is to leave all spaces large enough to be programmed in different ways as the family’s needs change. A steep slope presents itself to the yard and is a focal point. Planting a variety of colors and textures mixed among a few key existing trees changed this eyesore into a beautifully planted amenity for the property. Jimmy White Photography
