| Otter Cove Residence in California by Sagan Piechota Architecture Posted: 08 Apr 2013 05:07 AM PDT
The Otter Cove Residence sited in sloping terrain, perched atop a rocky outcrop overlooking the ocean in Carmel California. Designed by Sagan Piechota, the large area of the house was disguised by splitting the house into two wings, recessing the house into the site and locating nearly half of the space partially underground. The plan-split created a courtyard, the eastern wing providing privacy from Highway One and the western wing buffering the ocean wind. Secondary spaces are located on the lower floor and borrow light from above through three staircases. These spaces provide respite from the panoramic drama on the upper floor. Exterior walls are located only where absolutely necessary for privacy or structure and treated as monolithic elements. Stone cladding predominates, rooting the house in the site and visually connecting with the rocky cove. – Photos by Joe Fletcher The post Otter Cove Residence in California by Sagan Piechota Architecture appeared first on Home & House Design Ideas | Interior. |
