OL + expanded this North Shore waterfront bungalow to include a new library, two sleeping porches, a third floor billiard and game room, and added a conservatory. The design is influenced by the Arts and Crafts style of the existing house. A two-story gatehouse with similar architectural details, was designed to include a garage and second floor loft-style living quarters. The late landscape architect, Dale Wagner, developed the site to create picturesque views throughout the property as well as from every room.

This expansive St. Helena project entailed the construction of a complete wine valley estate, including a 5 bedroom 4-1/2 bath main residence and a 2 bedroom and 2 bath guest house. Included in the project were the pool, pool house, and sweeping architecturally designed gardens with detailed stonework. Additions to the project included: hand-built open trusses, multiple grand staircases, a custom wood bath tub filled from the ceiling, a firemen’s pole in the children’s wing with built-in queen sized bunk beds, a koi pond and custom finishes on all new and recycled materials throughout the estate.

Our client initially asked us to assist with selecting materials and designing a guest bath for their new Tucson home. Our scope of work progressively expanded into interior architecture and detailing, including the kitchen, baths, fireplaces, stair, custom millwork, doors, guardrails, and lighting for the residence – essentially everything except the furniture. The home is loosely defined by a series of thick, parallel walls supporting planar roof elements floating above the desert floor. Our approach was to not only reinforce the general intentions of the architecture but to more clearly articulate its meaning. We began by adopting a limited palette of desert neutrals, providing continuity to the uniquely differentiated spaces. Much of the detailing shares a common vocabulary, while numerous objects (such as the elements of the master bath – each operating on their own terms) coalesce comfortably in the rich compositional language.
