Innovative Modern Masterpiece Property Description: Recognized nationally by the AIA and building industry for its achievement in innovative and sustainable design and featured in the AIA tour, this urban residence is the creation of Zack de Vito Architecture: a masterpiece that synthesizes ecologically informed design and construction with a pure modern sensibility. A framed vista to the Bay Bridge is captured at the inviting street level entry. Inside, a translucent acrylic stairway visually integrates all three floors of living space while panoramic city and bay views enhance every room. The main living level encompasses the top floor where the open volumes and view deck emphasize the panorama of the city while creating multifunctional family-friendly living spaces. High ceilings and a full-length glass wall allow the exterior view to fully integrate with the interior. Sliding wall panels provide for flexible use of the space creating a private workspace or guest suite as needed. The second level features a generous master suite and deck also retaining the same panoramic views of the city. The ground floor accommodates a spacious family/media room that connects to a large level garden along with two additional bedrooms. Using a consistent palette of materials and detailing, the home is an impressive achievement of contemporary craft. Visible structural steel and fine wood cabinetry are used throughout, graphically defining or dividing spaces. Materials, details and connections are visible expressions of the design as exemplified in the intricate staircase where water jet-cut steel stringers support translucent acrylic treads and risers. Innovative design and an extraordinary attention to detail create a remarkable achievement.
