Los Altos Hills Residence was an comprehensive renovation to a dated hillside residence in Los Altos Hills, California by architecture studio Aleck Wilson Architects. The plan was to open up the home to the view, to extend and integrate the decks with indoor-outdoor living and reorganize the flow of the plan. The architects sought to create a soothing palette, with meticulously detailed supplies. Striking attributes of the residence include the glass central stairway that has an ethereal transparency that illuminates the interior of the 3-story residence. Custom stained wood slat cladding emphasizes circulation walls and creates a balanced counterpoint to the naturally lit stair. Custom lighting, furnishings and materials have been selected by interior design firm The Wiseman Group and integrated with the architecture all through the property.
