This renovation transforms a 1969 residence through the addition of a new second story and a reimagined interior layout. The design focuses on clarity, openness, and a stronger connection to the surrounding landscape.

On the ground floor, the original compartmentalized plan was replaced with an open living environment that unites the kitchen, dining, and living spaces. These areas extend outward to a covered rear patio and a front courtyard, blurring the boundary between indoor and outdoor living.

The new upper level expands the home while taking advantage of the site’s elevated views. It accommodates two bedrooms, a flexible multipurpose room, and a spacious primary suite. Above it all, a roof deck overlooks the Stone Canyon Reservoir, offering a quiet vantage point to experience the landscape.

The result is a home defined by openness, natural light, and a seamless dialogue between architecture and its environment.
