During the historical review period of the permitting process, Curtiss learned the house was previously owned by three generations of the same family — a fact that deeply informed how she approached the remodel. “We wanted [the family] to drive by and feel like, ‘Oh cool, look what they did to our old house,’” she said, explaining her decision to preserve the house’s original shape. As a reminder of its previous life, workers sandblasted the original floorplate and left it exposed to reveal “the history of little conduit holes drilled before.” They also utilized old framing members when molding the concrete retaining walls in the yard, literally “imprinting the building’s history into the walkways.”

Throughout the house, Curtiss mixed natural materials with industrial ones. Downstairs, fir and cedar wood on the doors and open-joisted ceiling balance the colder, industrial feel of the concrete floor and steel staircase railing. In the dining room, a pendant lamp from RLM Lighting hangs above a table that combines Cherner table legs with a new white laminate top. The yellow chairs are by Tolix.

Curtiss describes the floor plan as “super efficient but with gracious moments.” Instead of maximizing room size, she ensured that shared spaces were adequately sized. In the upstairs hallway, that means two or three people can pass each other with relative ease.

The house is also Build it Green Certified, beating the sustainability requirements of Title 24 (guidelines issued by the California Energy Commission Building Energy Efficiency Program) by over 50%. The house’s laundry is hooked up to a grey water irrigation system and its gutters drain rain into barrels for reuse. The concrete also incorporates 25% fly ash.

Here's another mod building downtown with its large glass facade and projecting roof. It looked fairly abandoned when I poked around, but appeared to be an office or business at one point.

An original request from the Yerba Buena Community Business District included flower baskets around the neighborhood. The idea was short-lived but CMG installed these floral tubes along the sidewalk outside SPUR for the Street Life Plan unveiling.

3. Business card cases by Masakage Tanno. "One of the first items we ordered for the store were these oak and walnut magnetic business card cases by master craftsman Masakage Tanno. We used them personally before the shop was even open and when someone asked us what kind of products we'd be carrying we'd pull out our wooden business card case and give them a card. We had the pleasure to visit Tanno in his studio in Asahikawa and are happy to announce a new range of products including a toothpick case and push mechanism pencil case. He also has a push mechanism business card case that is available in Japanese maple and ebony; the ebony will be exclusively offered at Mjölk."

The landscaping appears to be based on the mullet principle: business in the front, as seen here (manicured grid lawn, with native vegetation sprouting in careful symmetry), party in the back (sunflowers and wild mountain grass growing in harmonious chaos).
