we reoriented the entry forward and added a new pivot door with rich mahogany detailing. Accented by a Prairie Stone wall, the entry has great textural appeal.

Helen Degenhardt, JSW/D Architects. This newly constructed contemporary home in the Berkeley Hills has clean lines coupled with a peaceful assembly of light, color, and space. The many sustainable elements in this Green Point Rated structure include fly ash in concrete, super insulation, radiant heat, solar PV, solar hot water, grey water, rain water catchment for in-home use, FSC lumber, and a central vacuum. This ecologically sound home was published in the Fine Homebuilding, Houses Issue, 2011.

Situated on a challenging sloped lot, an elegant and modern home was achieved with a focus on warm walnut, stainless steel, glass and concrete. Each floor, named Sand, Sea, Surf and Sky, is connected by a floating walnut staircase and an elevator concealed by walnut paneling in the entrance. The home captures the expansive and serene views of the ocean, with spaces outdoors that incorporate water and fire elements. Ease of maintenance and efficiency was paramount in finishes and systems within the home. Accents of Swarovski crystals illuminate the corridor leading to the master suite and add sparkle to the lighting throughout. A sleek and functional kitchen was achieved featuring black walnut and charcoal gloss millwork, also incorporating a concealed pantry and quartz surfaces. An impressive wine cooler displays bottles horizontally over steel and walnut, spanning from floor to ceiling. Features were integrated that capture the fluid motion of a wave and can be seen in the flexible slate on the contoured fireplace, Modular Arts wall panels, and stainless steel accents. The foyer and outer decks also display this sense of movement. At only 22 feet in width, and 4300 square feet of dramatic finishes, a four car garage that includes additional space for the client's motorcycle, the Wave House was a productive and rewarding collaboration between the client and KBC Developments.
