Details
Atherton is a large family home for a professional couple and their two teenaged children, conceived as a place of comfort and amenity as well as one of joy and wonder. For our clients, who both work in the tech industry, this project represented the beginning of a new chapter in California. Having resided and built homes in Singapore and Hong Kong, they were well versed in the intricacies of designing a home, and approached us with a clearly defined brief. Our ensuing goal was to create a residence that embraced its Californian context and responded to our clients’ family dynamic.
The Jury‘s Statement
A distinctive, clear architecture connects »Atherton House« with its surroundings and creates an unmistakable home full of lightness. The successful combination of a classic H-plan, harmonious interior flow, and subtle material accents equally supports family life and retreat. Especially impressive is the assured execution, elegantly uniting Californian lifestyle with individual needs—an outstanding showcase of excellent residential living.
