San Francisco Modern Architecture
A guide to interesting homes and commercial buildings.
Residences

This house is very large, yet quite plain. It is clad in weathered wood siding that is a concrete gray. A long wall extends from one end of the property to the other reminiscent of traditional Japanese homes - also made of the same siding. The door that you can see in a close up also has a Japanese feel with the perpendicular wood slats. The house seems to be an L shape with one end being the garage door at the left hand side. Behind the wall to the right is a large yard since the other half of the L is quite a distance back. Not much can be seen other than a second story above the garage but set back quite a bit - it has a 45 degree angled roof which is entirely composed of flat skylights. The large mature trees on the property were probably left alone when the home was built in the 1970s.
