ODS ArchitectureLocated in Menlo Park, California, this 3,000 sf. remodel was carefully crafted to generate excitement and make maximum use of the owner’s strict budget and comply with the city’s stringent planning code. It was understood that not everything was to be redone from a prior owner’s quirky remodel which included odd inward angled walls, circular windows and cedar shingles.
Remedial work to remove and prevent dry rot ate into the budget as well. Studied alterations to the exterior include a new trellis over the garage door, pushing the entry out to create a new soaring stair hall and stripping the exterior down to simplify its appearance. The new steel entry stair leads to a floating bookcase that pivots to the family room. For budget reasons, it was decided to keep the existing cedar shingles.
Upstairs, a large oak multi-level staircase was replaced with the new simple run of stairs. The impact of angled bedroom walls and circular window in the bathroom were calmed with new clean white walls and tile.

one house greendue to lot orientation and proportion, we needed to find a way to get more light into the house, specifically during the middle of the day. the solution that we came up with was the location of the stairs along the long south property line, combined with the glass railing, skylights, and some windows into the stair well. we allowed the stairs to project through the glass as thought the glass had sliced through the steps.

mango design coa 'simple plan' to renovate the kitchen & bathroom turned into a complete overhaul of the main floor & basement.
the removal of a few walls, bathroom, mudroom and second fireplace on the main floor, allowed for a new south facing kitchen & dining area with direct access to the existing deck. a large south facing window & french doors bring light through the now open living area. a small powder room was added in the hall.
the basement had a very low ceiling, too many walls and was used only for storage. the floor was removed, dug down and a new slab poured, increasing ceiling height to almost 9 feet. the bright new basement with a light grey concrete floor, open fir stairs & white walls now houses an open playroom, guest bedroom/den, bathroom & laundry/mudroom.

SV DesignHaving been neglected for nearly 50 years, this home was rescued by new owners who sought to restore the home to its original grandeur. Prominently located on the rocky shoreline, its presence welcomes all who enter into Marblehead from the Boston area. The exterior respects tradition; the interior combines tradition with a sparse respect for proportion, scale and unadorned beauty of space and light.
