Ana Williamson Architect eight tree eight
Description
Towering over a narrow site, blocks from busy downtown Palo Alto, stands a cluster of mature coast redwoods. Nested amongst the giant trees is a single-family home and ADU designed and built for a busy professional couple drawn to the unique lot after being inspired by the look, feel, and site-forward aesthetics of the iconic Sea Ranch community in Northern California. In plan, individual program blocks twist and turn through the redwoods. In section, the same program blocks stack and climb into the trees. Spaces open to each other and to the outside, blending together to create areas of sunlight, shade, passage, gathering, and rest.
