The Atherton House is a family compound for a professional couple in the tech industry, and their two teenage children. After living in Singapore, then Hong Kong, and building homes there, they looked forward to continuing their search for a new place to start a life and set down roots.
The site is located on Atherton Avenue on a flat, 1 acre lot. The neighboring lots are of a similar size, and are filled with mature planting and gardens. The brief on this site was to create a house that would comfortably accommodate the busy lives of each of the family members, as well as provide opportunities for wonder and awe. Views on the site are internal. Our goal was to create an indoor- outdoor home that embraced the benign California climate.
The building was conceived as a classic “H” plan with two wings attached by a double height entertaining space. The “H” shape allows for alcoves of the yard to be embraced by the mass of the building, creating different types of exterior space. The two wings of the home provide some sense of enclosure and privacy along the side property lines. The south wing contains three bedroom suites at the second level, as well as laundry. At the first level there is a guest suite facing east, powder room and a Library facing west.
The north wing is entirely given over to the Primary suite at the top level, including the main bedroom, dressing and bathroom. The bedroom opens out to a roof terrace to the west, overlooking a pool and courtyard below. At the ground floor, the north wing contains the family room, kitchen and dining room. The family room and dining room each have pocketing sliding glass doors that dissolve the boundary between inside and outside.
Connecting the wings is a double high living space meant to be comfortable, delightful and awe-inspiring. A custom fabricated two story circular stair of steel and glass connects the upper level to the main level, and down to the basement “lounge” below. An acrylic and steel bridge begins near one end of the stair landing and flies 40 feet to the children’s bedroom wing. People going about their day moving through the stair and bridge become both observed and observer.
The front (EAST) wall is the all important receiving place for guests and family alike. There the interplay between yin and yang, weathering steel and the mature olive tree, empower the entrance. Most other materials are white and pure.
The mechanical systems are efficiently combined hydronic heating and cooling, with no forced air required.

Swedish design firm Cortina & Käll were tasked with connecting a new 1,400-square-foot apartment to an existing 3,000-square-foot apartment in a New York City high-rise. Their goal was to give the apartment a scale and flow benefitting its new larger size.
“We envisioned a light and sculptural spiral staircase at the center of it all. The staircase and its opening allowed us to achieve the desired transparency and volume, creating a dramatically new and generous apartment,” said Francisco Cortina.

Specialized Stair and Rail
A solid walnut curved stair transformed this home during renovations. The open rise treads coupled with curved glass railings offer a stylish modern look. This stair features a stainless steel post system with stunning curved glass bent locally in our glass shop. Solid walnut treads show rich character through diverse wood grain. Curved glass held by stainless steel glass clamps makes a beautiful statement.

Wide-plank reclaimed Douglas Fir floors are in most rooms, which are meant to be a common denominator to the design. The Douglas Fir is also the stairs, and is combined with blackened steel and glass. Photography by Eric Laignel.

Luftige Angelegenheit: Die Treppe wurde mit weiß geölten Massivholzstufen in Eiche auf die Möbelkonstruktion gesetzt. Das Vollglas-Geländer mit Holzhandlauf ist in die Stufen eingenutet. Die neuen Möbel unter der Treppe und im Spitzboden sind, wie die Wände, weiß gefärbt, und lassen den kleinen Räumen viel Luft zum Atmen.

The stairway wellhead is a standard circle, in this case we usually make a spiral staircase, then there will be a pole in the middle, but the curved staircase design looks better, graceful arc, from the top down, the center looks like a pearl. How do you like it?
