Parker Residence

San Francisco, 2022

Featured Medium: Transparency

Medium Plenty renovated and refined a 1920s Spanish Revival into the dream house for a family of four and their frequent overnight guests. They kept the spirit of the original building, yet updated it with fresh imagination, sustainable materials, modern design elements and state-of-the-art technology. The result is an exciting space with great character that highlights the thematic aims of cohesion and transparency.

The home was made more spacious while also maintaining a sense of privacy. Medium Plenty expanded the building to three stories by excavating the earth to create a lower level. They also added a roof deck that includes an outdoor kitchen. The home’s façade maintains a quiet street presence, while the back of the home is bolder, with grand windows facing a private yard and terraced gardens.

Inside, a custom-fabricated steel and wood staircase is both the centerpiece and spine of the residence. A three-story, continuous ribbon window accentuates the vertical drama of the staircase and provides continuous, glorious natural light.
