Floor Plan of Pyrenees by David Noordhoff / Freeman Group Architects
Fields of native grasses connect the main residence, situated at the top of the slope, to the new structures scattered below. A pergola extends from the post-and-beam structure that was maintained during the remodel of the midcentury home.
Blaine Architects capped the front addition to this Eichler home with a shed roof that mimics the slope of traditional Eichlers, but slants in the opposite direction to make it distinct. The wood screen is made from Accoya.
The client wanted to be able to see straight through the front of the house to the back, accomplished with the help of disappearing pocket doors between the dining room and patio.
Oak cabinets on either side of the long dining room table camouflage a variety of kitchen appliances and even laundry facilities.
