From the ground up this modernist home is built to last—with expansive open living areas made possible by a series of seismic steel moment frames.

Sleek and stylish, the 6,000 sq. ft. interior features a custom ribbon-folded steel stair, wide plank oak floors, custom cabinetry, Lutron Homeworks systems and an elevator to all levels.

The elevated height and orientation of the home’s corner lot makes for impressive siting, acting as a podium for the building and enhancing its city views. This also posed access challenges, requiring a staged construction strategy in which we started at the lot’s highest edge and progressed toward the back—with major excavation and shoring along the way.

The exterior of the house is clad in vertical grain cedar and stucco, with a rain screen milled from 14”x14” solid cedar beam stock and solar array. We oversaw the landscaping installation, as well as improvement of the public gardens on the lower corner of the lot.
