Macy Architecture — Marin County, CA, 2001

The Cabral Residence, designed by Macy Architecture and completed in 2001, is a 2,249-square-foot home in Marin County, CA. The project involved reconfiguring the original structure, with particular attention given to the rear yard, where prior additions were replaced by a single, minimal volume. The brief called for connecting the main living spaces to the outdoors while resolving the fragmented layout of the existing house. The rear addition consolidates the living, dining, and kitchen functions into one generous space, defined by precisely arranged doors, windows, and skylights that introduce daylight and frame views to the garden, sky, and city beyond. The front of the residence retains its compartmentalized character, now accommodating bedrooms and refurbished bathrooms within the former living, dining, and parlor rooms. The solution is modern in approach, emphasizing clear geometries and fostering new relationships between interior and exterior environments.
