This Mid Century Modern Eichler House In California Got A Contemporary Remodel

Klopf Architecture together with Outer Space Landscape Architects, Sezen & Moon Structural Engineer and Flegels Construction, have updated a classic Eichler home in Mountain View, California. The home owners loved the classic, original look of the home, but needed it updated for their contemporary lifestyle.

The new, natural wood exterior siding runs through the house, updating one of the classic design features of the Eichler homes.

In the large kitchen designed for entertaining, there’s a wall of built-ins and an oversized island. There’s plenty of storage and lots of counterspace for everyone to prep and cook together.

In the master bedroom, the bed now sits on a platform that’s tucked within a wall of built-in wooden wardrobes with leather handles. By replacing the master closet with these built-ins the designers were able to create a large master bedroom.

In the bathrooms, wood has been combined with white tiles on the walls and floor to create a clean contemporary look.
