Instagram Schuchart / Dow Portola Valley Midcentury Split-Level Remodel SHARE ARCHITECTURE: RICE + DETIENNE DESIGNS PHOTOGRAPHY: ELENA GRAHAM TYPE: REMODEL FINISH DATE: 2019 < > Rice and DeTienne Designs redesigned this split-level midcentury house in Portola Valley to include a new kitchen, concrete floor with radiant heat, window and sliding door replacements, cabinetry updates, reconfiguration of laundry area, as well as, several exterior finishes. The floating stairs, steel fireplace and exterior wood soffits were preserved during the remodel. Our on site superintendent was able to put much of the finish carpentry in place. We are proud of these big results from our small, nimble Dowbuilt team. RELATED...

The abundance of natural light and gardens woven throughout provide a reprieve from the hustle and bustle of city life. A minimalist palette of finishes celebrates tone and texture and encourages one to enjoy the views and lush landscape. Yellow cedar screens milled in Dowbuilt's Shop cover floor-to-ceiling windows and doors. Custom concrete walls throughout feature a unique appearance and texture from partially sanded plywood panels. The upper bedroom spaces nestle into the tree canopies above and enjoy a living roof deck. "This home seems to capture and hold the cool light of the Pacific Northwest. The vegetation plays a significant role in the material palette, and the understated concrete and wood slide past each other creating a setting that appears quiet without being austere." - JUROR, 2020 AIA DESIGN AWARDS RELATED...
