Project Description

Alfonso & Harmon Architects faced the challenge of fitting the client’s long list of desired spaces, a functional back yard with pool, and adequate solar access for the clients photovoltaic system, all on a standard sized lot. The client requested dual Master Suites, one upstairs and one downstairs to address present and anticipated future needs. Brazilian teak flooring, stained and glazed alder cabinets, and travertine and granite counters create a casual yet elegant feel on the interior. A graceful curving stairway of Brazilian teak and wrought iron is a dramatic sculptural element in the two-story Entry volume. This project was a collaboration with Hanson Construction. Interior design is by Pat Larin.
