Concrete House with Steel Tower Like a “Treehouse” | Analog House

ByMyProperty Life

Designed in collaboration with the renowned architecture studio Olson Kundig Architects along with Faulkner Architects, this house, constructed with concrete, steel, and glass, incorporates contemporary elements with minimal disruption to the surrounding natural environment, where the majestic ponderosa pines, manzanita, and exposed basalt stand out. The house features a series of fluid and interconnected spaces that open up to stunning views and allow for continuous connection with the surroundings. From the impressive steel cladding of the tower to meticulously designed details such as clerestory windows and the outdoor fireplace convertible into an Argentinian grill, the Analog House is an expression of contemporary elegance.

  • Shepard Mesa House

    Located on a steep Cherimoya orchard in the foothills of Carpinteria, Shepard Mesa House is a new home for a young family of four. The neighborhood consists of dispersed homes along a single road leading up and around the crown of a hill. Sited diagonally to the contours of the hill, the house slopes with the natural fall of the land. Interior functions at three different levels are gathered under a single gable roof. Bedrooms at the lower elevations are nestled into the working orchard around them where the trees provide the most privacy. The living room, kitchen and dining area on the upper level opens downslope and affords the most expansive views. Neighboring homes are just out of sight as the view stretches out across the valley to the backside of Rincon Mountain. The siting, orientation, and plan take advantage of natural light and ventilation reducing the reliance on mechanical systems and creating a living experience in balance with the site.
