pinizini residence

Linda Vista, CA

The home was designed as a legacy for a father to leave for his son and his family.  The house grows with the young family, and shrinks when the children leave. In order to maintain a house for a fifty year lifespan, we selected timeless and durable materials.  The framing is concrete block and mold-resistant wood with concrete paneling and copper siding cladding the exterior.  The natural ventilation, day-lighting, and sustainable materials ensure the home will use less energy for many years to come.

design + construction

The main views of Mission Valley from the house inspired the geometry.  We separated the main living spaces into public and private wings that are connected with a full glass corridor and entry.
