The house
The roof folds up and down across the whole front of the house, and each fold has its own clerestory window, so light comes in at the top of every room.
The kitchen was redone in walnut and stone a few years ago, in keeping with the house. The front garden is all desert planting, so it needs almost no water.
What you’ll notice
- Folded roof with clerestory glass
- Walnut kitchen with a stone counter
- Desert front garden
- Block screen around the side yard
Mid-century features
- Clerestory windowsA band of glass just under the roofline. Daylight all day, and the neighbors still can’t see in.
- Post-and-beamThe roof rides on exposed beams and posts instead of walls, which frees the walls to be glass.
- Breeze blockPatterned concrete block screens that shade a patio or carport and still let the air through.
