Square Footage

Nestled between several mature redwoods in the Oakland Hills, the Novak Residence is a refresh of an existing mid-century home. The front entry of the home has been extended towards the street and connected to the driveway by a new foot bridge and concrete stair, enhancing the previous entry sequence. The addition of new full-height windows and clear cedar siding add natural light and warmth to this sequence that speaks to the surrounding environment. The exterior remodel focuses on clean mid-century inspired detailing and material choices that complement and enhance the existing home. The project aims to create a visually striking entry that feels at home amongst the landscape of the Hills.
