Mountain View Contemporary

Located on a small but prominent corner lot just steps away from Mountain View City Hall, this striking three-level contemporary home promises to be one of the more exciting additions to the downtown streetscape.

The exterior features striking rooflines contrasted with a mix of floor-to-ceiling aluminum windows, smooth white stucco, and western red cedar. Window placement responds to the many existing mature trees on the site, while providing privacy from passersby.

The program is split amongst three levels connected by a central stair and elevator, with living and a exercise room on the ground floor, his/her offices on the upper level sharing a south facing balcony, and family bedrooms in the lower level.

The primary living area features a vaulted ceiling swooping up towards the rear yard, with a tall wall of glass offering transparency to the private rear yard.

Studio S Squared provided the architecture, interiors, and landscape design for this project.

Construction is underway and expected completion date is mid-2023.
