Typically suburban house living residence is done by Turnbull Griffin Haesloop Architects. This architects have designed a home in Atherton, California. The theme of this contemporary residence architecture is to create a nice and comfortable place to live just like a holiday house that have connection through the interior and exterior. There are also some outdoor room in this house design. The clients also want to have a house to be a private retreat that maximizes the drama of the pond and takes advantage of the privacy of the site. The design solution breaks the program into four buildings: main house, study, pool house and garage that ring the edge of the site and focus inwards on the pond, garden and pool. The main house features a butterfly roof that turns up to the south with a dramatic overhang. Large sliding glass doors open directly out to the pond and terrace. The house also features many green building materials, including high fly ash concrete, formaldehyde-free casework and denim insulation. via
