Take a minimalist design; materials such as stone, masonry, and glass,
and interesting angles and positions for windows, and you have this
unique “look” in a one-story home from Vanguarda Architects.
The home, made up basically of a “box,” differentiates spaces within
and without by means of clever detail and floor-level glass that helps
break up an unrelieved wall of stone here, affording a great backyard
“bower” feel there. And, in an area where space is at a premium — note
how close neighboring houses are — this solid façade and that glass,
give the owners a privacy they wouldn’t have with more traditional style
picture windows, or even bay windows at normal levels. Ingeniously
enough, the glass also serves as a connector between master suite and
outside.
The front entrance is conveniently covered by an overhanging roof; enjoy
the surprise of an internal courtyard, its stone patio surface holding a
mini-garden of planters, and its presence a neat divider (and a source
of light!) between private and public parts of the home. At the back of
the house, you’ll find the heart of family gatherings and entertaining: a
kitchen, living room, and dining room, illuminated both by the expanses
of glass across the back, and by windows off the interior courtyard.
Surrounded by climbing green, a pergola shelters the deck with its stone
barbecue, a clever reiteration of the front stone wall. This wing of
the home also includes guest quarters and a powder room, laundry, and a
study. Simplicity itself, with simple materials: that’s CZZ house by
Vanguarda.
