The Mountain Wood residence from California, realized by Walker Warner Architects, includes separate buildings to create a variety of complementary indoor-outdoor spaces that would provide varied living experiences. Walker-Warner has arranged around a free central courtyard, three structures: the main house, an office and a barn.
The fourth structure – a pool house – includes a row of three pavilions. At the construction of all structures, the same materials have been used: wood, stone, glass and steel. “The Mountain Wood residence embodies the San Francisco firm’s belief that architecture should be expressive, timeless, and always united with the natural beauty of the site—in this case, the small rural town of Woodside, California.”
