Description by IwamotoScott Architecture
IwamotoScott designed this new ground-up house in the Noe Valley neighbourhood, as a speculative infill development for a builder in San Francisco whom we’ve worked together with on several projects.

The subtly-angled facade design was created by adapting to different setbacks of the neighboring houses, and as a response to the downhill views to the east. Exterior materials include both stained clear cedar vertical boards alternating with blackened spacer boards, aluminum windows with clear cedar casing, and cast-in-place concrete site work. The house is organized around both a lightwell and stairwell at its center.

Situated at the heart of the house, the lightwell and stairwell act together as a spatial hinge between living/dining and kitchen/family on the main living level, and between kids’ and parents’ bedrooms on the upper sleeping level. Bedrooms and bathrooms on the next level up also flank the central lightwell and stairwell, which culminates onto a roof deck...
