EVOLUTDESIGN PRESENTS: #TEHAMA2 #LUXURYHOME IN #CARMELBYTHESEA #CA

I have always loved #carmelbythesea. I know #ClintEastwood has some of his hands in this pie but this is a quiet, beautiful #bedroomcommunity. The #home — the #TEHAMA2 - is in the #TehamaCommunity of #CarmelValley in #California. If you're into wine, nature, and just plain old California, make a trip and have fun! William Lane, Editor-in-Chief, https://www.evolutdesign.com - READ ON - Did you know that Studio Schicketanz is world-renowned for its #stunning #coastalarchitecture with dynamite #interiors that ooze CALI-FOR-NIA? As one of the Central Coast’s leading #architecture and #interiordesign firms, Studio Schicketanz is sought after for its sensitive approach to the landscape, #sustainablearchitecture techniques, and sophisticated yet comfortable #interiors. For founder #MaryAnnSchicketanz, #AIA, #Carmel, and the surrounding #BigSur and #Monterey region have been a source of endless inspiration since she first arrived from #Austria over 30 years ago. It has led to a career-long investigation into the relationship between landscape, building materials, form, and nature. She considers the natural beauty of the #coastal region a muse—everything from its #CypressTrees and dune grasses to the ever-present ocean—all of which defines her signature palettes and materials. “In our work, we seek to do justice to the land, our clients, and our own architectural ambitions,” says Schicketanz. The firm brings this ethos to its wide-ranging portfolio, no matter the project’s location. To date, their California work spans the entire coastline—from #LagunaBeach to northern #Marin—and they have also completed projects across the Western United States, everywhere from Hawaii to Texas, and Europe. TEHAMA 2 In Clint Eastwood’s coveted Carmel Valley Tehama community, this #netzero #residence celebrates the land, #sustainability, and the power of architecture to make us feel safe. The virgin site was a gently sloping meadow, at the edge of a mixed forest that features a signature — and interesting — oak tree. While wanting a contemporary design, the clients loved the traditional #agriculturalarchitecture of the Valley, as well as the indoor/outdoor lifestyle the region's warm climate allows. In reference and homage to the local vernacular, Studio Schicketanz used simple shapes made of local stone, traditional board and batt siding, and metal roofing. SCENIC DRIVE Studio Schicketanz rebuilt the entire ocean frontage of this residence without increasing square footage for a client with a longstanding passion for the region’s natural beauty. By creating a terraced roof design to maximize views, the southern half of the residence now accommodates a master suite next to a living, green roof. On both levels, the design's prominent trellises filter light while giving foreground to the architecture. Inside, the home’s soft palettes are reflected in the delicate white oak floors and locally sourced stone that was hand-selected for the in-home, pizza oven. A #ChristopherPeacock #kitchen (https://peacockhome.com/) and custom marble pieces, carved from a solid marble block, further ground the elegance of the open-plan space.
