A Remarkable House In A Lush Vegetation and Great Vista of Golden Gate Bridge

“A barrel-vaulted ceiling articulates the living and dining spaces at the topmost level of the main house, and a large deck projects towards the bay to extend the space into the landscape. Other, smaller projections from the house’s main volume towards the bay provide more intimate spaces for dining or leisure, producing a façade which can be read as a hierarchy of varying degrees of enclosure within the tripartite structural scheme.

Bedrooms, a study and a two-story play area occupy the intermediate floors, while a gym of the lowest level offers close proximity to an outdoor terrace with lap pool, whose “infinity edge” of water establishes a poetic connection to the bay beyond.” stated the architecture about this Belvedere Residence which faces the Golden Gate Bridge. Gwathmey Siegel & Associates Architects created this modern home with lush vegetation with spectacular view with minimalist modern interior design which is warm and simple.
