The Payne Residence 2007; FIN Architecture--Christopher Payne, A.I.A.
Functionalism transcends the box in this suave exploration of
contemporary modernism on a street-to-street double-lot with sweeping
views, pool & a separate concrete & glass studio. Payne's
design exploits the gentle horizontal curve of Ronda Vista Place &
dramatic verticality in the cliff-like forms presented to the downslope.
Within, space is bent and refracted, as if natural crystalline forms
had grown and merged via geologic, natural geometries. Faceted,
origami-like plywood ceilings give living room, dining room and kitchen a
playful and pleasing complexity and contrast with smoothly continuous
terrazzo floors. Upstairs, living quarters enjoy substantial separation
and dazzling views, as well as ample all-day sun. Rarely is such
restrained use of modern materials so rich & sheltering; pool-side
studio offers a superb work-from-home option & separate entry.
"Green" design includes solar electric generation.
Offered at $2,299,000
