Oak Woodland by Walker Warner
Oak Woodland is a modern wooden residence located in San Francisco Bay Area, designed by Walker Warner.
Description
Located in a magnificent, park-like setting filled with mature, 80-foot-tall oak trees, this residence meets the clients? desire for a family home that is casual, stylish, functional, and adaptable. Flexible indoor and outdoor spaces allow for the use and enjoyment of the site in its entirety, both house and grounds.

By completely reworking the site and blending the clients? traditional and modern tastes, the design team created an evocative new home that?s nestled into the woods. Utilizing clean lines and a pared-down palette of cedar, metal, and concrete, the two-story residence borders an open space preserve. The home?s transparency and relationship to the land reflects the site?s expansiveness, which is evident upon arrival at the formal entry where guests can immediately experience the natural setting through seamless indoor-outdoor connections. The home?s rooflines are stretched to protect the interiors from hot summers, while responding to forms prominent in the California rural landscape which served as design inspiration for the home.
