GREAT HIGHWAY SURFHOUSE
Facing the ocean, this typical sunset house in San Francisco is home to a young family, passionate about art and surf. With views of the waves on one side, and of Twin Peaks on the other side, the house also has a beautiful backyard, and the three stories are oriented towards an indoor-outdoor way of life.
The warm and evolving finishes will tell stories of an artful happy life. Clad in cedar this home is meant to fade and weather to become a classic surf house fitting in with its neighbors while being completely its own style.
From early sketches to becoming a home, this project took 4 years with a team of structural, civil and geotech engineers, interior and landscape designers and contractors. This was a full interior remodel with horizontal and vertical additions.
