Designed for a young family from New Zealand, the 5,000 square foot residence located on the edge of downtown Menlo Park is a new leaf on the branch of a classic Californian Modernism. Beyond the aesthetic indebtedness of form and materials, the seamless connection to the outdoors was established as a refrain for the house’s organization and articulation. A 40-foot-wide pocketing glass door opening creates a dramatic dissultion of the separation between a great room living space and the pool deck beyond. In the Master Bedroom, similar pocketing doors retract at the corner to link the space with an intimate outdoor sitting area.
