Project Description:
The site was once a Marine Corps Air Station base and home to historic blimp hangars. Our planners and architects were tasked with creating homes with sleek contemporary aesthetics and modern floor plans for a diverse buyer wanting urban-like lifestyle with a suburban feel and amenity.
A design constraint of this infill project is the residences are plotted in an auto-court formation. In order to maintain privacy, the orientation of the homes and deck design/location was key. Thoughtful consideration to window locations at every level helped to minimize viewing inside interiors - not just from adjacent homes, but also from elevated rooftop decks.
Architecturally, these residences were designed to look and feel contemporary, with careful attention to ensure they age gracefully. The use of white as a base stucco color allows accent materials and other colors to enhance the overall building forms. Two-car garages with side by side parking are illuminated by frosted glass garage doors that not only allow natural light in, but also provide architectural detailing to compliment the exterior design.
The detached, three-story home design includes open-concept floor plans, along with pocket yards, and rooftop decks. Primary living takes place on the first and second story. On the third level, a bonus room and expansive roof-top deck provide extended entertainment with beautiful views of adjacent parks and surrounding neighborhoods.
