Mark Brand Architecture
The design of this remodel of a small two-level residence in Noe Valley reflects the owner's passion for Japanese architecture. Having decided to completely gut the interior partitions, we devised a better-arranged floor plan with traditional Japanese features, including a sunken floor pit for dining and a vocabulary of natural wood trim and casework. Vertical grain Douglas Fir takes the place of Hinoki wood traditionally used in Japan. Natural wood flooring, soft green granite and green glass backsplashes in the kitchen further develop the desired Zen aesthetic. A wall to wall window above the sunken bath/shower creates a connection to the outdoors. Privacy is provided through the use of switchable glass, which goes from opaque to clear with a flick of a switch. We used in-floor heating to eliminate the noise associated with forced-air systems.

Drawing inspiration from Japanese architecture, we combined painted maple cabinet door frames with inset panels clad with a rice paper-based covering. The countertops were fabricated from a Southwestern golden granite. The green apothecary jar came from Japan.

The combination of turquoise glass tile, river rock and black granite to reflect the both, alludes to the feeling of a water's edge. All the windows and some trim as shown complimented the large beams used overhead. I was inspired by boats in a harbor, both light and dark components and the reflection of light on a midnight sail.

Casa Zen rappresenta al 100% quello che intendiamo quando parliamo di ristrutturazione completa.
Abbiamo visto questo appartamento, in zona Porta Venezia a Milano, quando ancora era abitato dal precedente proprietario, un signore anziano che per vari motivi aveva trascurato questo bilocale.
Nonostante lo stato originario però questa casa ha subito catturato la nostra attenzione. La pianta semplice e regolare, le finestre grandi e luminose con le balaustre decorate, ci hanno conquistate.
Le richieste della cliente
La cliente, una giovane donna interessata alla cultura orientale e della meditazione, desiderava uno spazio che la rispecchiasse pienamente.
Poco amante della cucina, ci ha richiesto che questa occupasse il minor spazio possibile. Abbiamo quindi deciso di cambiare la posizione della zona cucina rispetto allo stato originario e di posizionare l’angolo cottura in una nicchia. Due moduli da 45cm ed uno da 60cm costituiscono la cucina di questo appartamento, il frigorifero non è a incasso ma è parte integrante dell’arredamento.
Altra richiesta è stata quella di ricavare una cabina armadio, piccola ma funzionale. Siamo riuscite nell’impresa! Un porta rasomuso divide questo spazio di servizio dalla camera da letto, essenziale nei colori e nell’arredo.
Il bagno, cieco, abbiamo deciso di rivoluzionarlo completamente cambiando la disposizione dei sanitari e dando molta importanza alla doccia, il posto sicuramente che contribuisce a rilassarci maggiormente dopo una giornata faticosa.
Il protagonista dell’appartamento secondo noi rimane però il soggiorno dove la sensazione di confort e relax raggiunge livelli altissimi.

Notice how the white oak wood grain flows continuously across the door fronts. Nearly every other custom cabinetmaker will not go to this much trouble. Guess what this means: if I make a mistake or damage one during manufacture, I have to replace a whole batch. Ask me how I know this :(
Baylis Architects
The owner of a modest 1910's bungalow near Green Lake, wanted to update his home's small and outdated kitchen. Through the thoughtful rearrangement of the home's original kitchen, mudroom, and basement stairs a modern kitchen with an abundance of storage was created. Complementary colors and materials were used to provide a quiet transition from the existing home to the new space. The home's existing Asian furnishings and accessories provide inspiration for subtle details incorporated throughout 350 SF remodel and reflect the homeowner's heritage.
