The house was the work of Turnbull Griffin Haesloop Architects that was completed in 2008. The project also involved landscape architect Jennifer Brooke and interior designer John and Loreta Hornall. The size of the house is 1,700 square feet with wooden materials as the dominant element. However, to make it more convincingly sustainable, the exterior is covered in cedar siding with a metal roof. The interior is furnished with a Douglas fir ceiling and decking, sheetrock walls and Ipe flooring. The project has successfully brought out modern house architecture in a naturally wooden atmosphere.

From the 1950s to a modern eco friendly house designed for today, Turnbull Griffin Haesloop Architects’ renovation of the Atherton Sustainable Residential Architecture in south San Francisco home is incredible. The original house was removed, except for existing mature landscaping and a pond, which were preserved at the owner’s request. The tone for the new Sustainable Residential Architecture would be one of refuge, and in harmony with its natural surroundings.
