midcentury house
Project Type: Interior and Exterior renovation of a 2,200 sf midcentury home
Services: Full Architectural Services
Structural Engineer: Altos Engineering
General Contractor: Metzler Brothers
This home, designed in 1956 by architect William McDevitt in the hills of Marin County, sat unchanged for 60 years. Pristereo worked closely with a new owner who sought to pay homage to the original design of the home while adding contemporary upgrades. A bright color palette and playful details breathe new life into the residence.
​
New interventions remain period-authentic to both respect and celebrate the building’s architecture. Interior improvements include full kitchen and bathroom remodels with state of the art appliances.
The renovated kitchen and bathrooms add a bright color scheme and curved wall elements to accentuate the structural grid of the building. New updates are meant to feel authentic to the home’s original modern design.
