A light, modern staircase designed to feel open, airy, and seamlessly integrated into the space.
This homeowner sought to create a modern home that reflected her distinctive style and preferences. Her vision included a piano room with bay views, a light-filled office, and a fireplace that is a work of art.
The steep hillside location near a creek and the Hayward Fault presented significant challenges. The design had to maximize the views while ensuring safety and stability. The construction involved intricate planning for heavy excavation machinery, integral for laying a robust foundation.
The custom-designed steel fireplace became the centerpiece of the home, especially as the homeowner was deeply involved in shaping every detail of the project. She hand-selected finishes and worked closely with the team to create a home that felt like a modern art piece, and the fireplace played a central role in that vision. Finalized late in the construction process, it required months of meticulous planning, extensive collaboration with the vendor, and multiple design revisions, including the integration of a hidden retractable television, to achieve a flawless final result that honored her evolving artistic vision.
