Northwest Corner
Front elevation
Local limestone, ample daylighting, natural ventilation and deep overhangs serve to connect the house to its context through its materiality and ease of opening up the exterior.
The facades features mahogany panelling and ample glazing. Vertical windows tilt open and bring fresh air into the home.
Eco-conscious and energy-efficient, the structure’s heavily insulated walls and panels help the house approach passive energy standards. Exterior sliding shutters and deep overhangs contribute environmental benefits, as does the breeze wafting off the lake.
The ToDD Residence
In the bathroom of “Mad Men” actor Vincent Kartheiser’s “Japanese-inustrial style” Hollywood home is an irregular-shaped sink of raw stone adjacent to the shower and soaking tub.
