Bay Area Modern - Whole house remodel
Front entry & steps: The existing steps up to the original porch were retained, but clad in California Gold 12x12 slate. A built-in bench is provided beside the front door for shoe removal. The existing brick chimney remains, with the 1960s brick layout providing a textural counterbalance to the otherwise smooth surfaces. The chimney's new color scheme makes it a strong centering feature to the rambling exterior layout, as well as creating a strong vertical counterpoint to the home's horizontal lines.
