A contemporary restaurant remodel project that received both the 2017 Award of Merit from the Washington DC AIA and the 2017 Pacific Coast Gold Nugget Grand Prize. The restaurant features electrochromic glass which can change from pitch black to ultra clear with the flip of the switch. The glass was essential in achieving a clean look while avoiding heat gain and preserving views to the historic National Post Office Courtyard.
I served as the project architect, and took the project from initial concept stages through construction and closeout. This Sea Cliff home was originally built in 1946, and had suffered from water damage and dry rot throughout its history. The owner had a desire to update the home with a more modern aesthetic. We replaced three existing columns with a long-span header, which allowed for the installation of a 12ft continuous operable sliding door panel.
Laser cut powder coated aluminum panels serve as a shade canopy across the face of the building. The redwood siding came from Arborica, a master sawyer and provider of salvaged lumber in the Bay Area.
