Description:

Settled in the slopes of Mill Valley, California, directly over the Golden Gate Bridge from San Francisco, Hillside House has recently gotten confirmation as the initially LEED for Homes Platinum custom home in Marin County, and one of just a modest bunch in Northern California.

Composed by San Francisco-based SB Architects, a global firm surely understood for the configuration of site-delicate resort and blended use ventures far and wide, and assembled by surely understood green manufacturer McDonald Construction and Development, this house is an announcement of what is conceivable joining “high outline with high supportability.”

The four-story home – clad with wonderful, manageable Western Red Cedar siding – is determined to a precarious slope site that accommodates an exceptionally vertical configuration with living and private zones arranged on different separate floors. Various outside and secured porches and overhangs benefit from shocking perspectives of the sound and the San Francisco horizon past. The home’s numerous green perspectives include:Western Red Cedar siding.

Every last bit of this LEED Platinum custom home has been intended to amplify its maintainability, in direct reaction to the site, trees and sees. Hence, this home lives far bigger than its genuine foot shaped impression, yet with an effect that is far less.
