Private House in California

The design team from Jørgensen Design created a project for a country house in California, USA. The residence, located close to the city center, sits on a 469 square meter plot with many trees and a vineyard. The project consists of two houses connected by a glass section and surrounded by an area with various internal gardens. The entrance door is made of solid redwood. It leads to a small glass hall that connects the two main walls of the house.

The first, built from cedar, opens into the garden and bedrooms, while the second stone wall leads to a collection of art objects owned by the homeowners and into the main house. The main building is constructed along the vineyard and offers a beautiful view of the surrounding mountains beyond its boundaries. While the utility areas of the house are hidden in the part facing the busy road. Materials used in the project reflect its rural origin and soften urban elements of the roof and massive architectural openings.
