shell road

Designed for a family of six in the flats of Mill Valley, the residence balances a quiet, contextual street presence with a more open relationship to the rear courtyard, pool, and lawn. Distinct wings organize the different rhythms of family life, while double-height spaces, interconnected volumes, and carefully placed skylights bring the home together through light and visual connection. Expansive glazing supports gathering and easy indoor-outdoor living while maintaining privacy from the street. Gently sloping shed roofs echo distant views of Mount Tamalpais, while a warm palette of wood, basalt, and travertine grounds the contemporary architecture in its Marin County setting.
