    In the San Francisco Bay Area, midcentury modern homes developed by Joseph Eichler are as sought after as a good burrito and a hot start-up idea. Of course, being more than 50 years old, Eichlers often need a bit of attention.
    When Andrew and Drewry Wolf got their hands on one, they had to deal with years of wear and tear. In this video, see how the Wolfs restored the double-gable home and its picturesque atrium, creating a space that’s “light, uplifting, natural and peaceful,” Drewry says.

    My mother grew up in an Eichler. She loved it, but said her mom cried when they moved in, because she didn’t want to clean all those windows. Grandma ended up loving the home. When we visit Los Angelos - we drive by her childhood home. ♥️
    This reno is lovely.

    Such a Beautiful Home, so wonderful to see it restored. It's funny to think how the owner described Eichler's philosophy as 'designed so the middle class could afford nice homes' when today an Eichler house is probably very, very expensive.

    I'm from Costa Rica and was very fortunate to spend work and vacation time in one if this houses. Amazing and the lines very clean.
    It was 14 years ago my last visit. I think that is is located in a street called Fern. And the number of the house 766 un red.
    Amazing house with an avocado tree in the back yard and an orange tree in the front yard. I won't forget that house. ❤️

    Beautiful home. The 1605 is my favorite Eichler model. I really would have tried to keep the natural wood ceilings, though. That is one of the key features of MCM architecture & design, in my opinion. Again, fabulous job!

  • @jeffyjohn5673

    I love that atrium idea. It's a room within the home, however it's outside. These Eichlers are the coolest thing I have ever seen.

    Beautiful job on the house. Previous owner would have been so proud to see this restoration. This is work of love, a delicate balance of bringing the home to modern standards while retaining the footprint of an Eichler home.

    Gorgeous, one of the two most beautiful Eichlers I've seen. I lived in one in 1980, it was still original which isn't as luxurious. But the windows are always stunning, I love bringing the outside in.

    Wonderful job restoring this house! As we glimpsed a bit, there would have been much less white in the original finishes. Exposed wood ceilings and waxed plywood veneer on the walls were the norm. It's lovely what you did with the mahogany screen.

    I love Eichler Homes. Too bad there are only a few hundred here in Southern California. This is my favorite Eichler design. The A frame in the middle with the flat roof on the sides. The atrium is what I love and It's the perfect design for me. The only issue I have is I wish this design came with a double car garage. The carport is great but I would like a place to lock up my cars at night and I would like to have a garage workbench.

    Wonderful.
    I got into a comment war with someone who groused that FLWright’s work was often “unlivable.” I replied that Wright (and all other architects worthy of the title) would always say that beauty is often not fully utilitarian.
    One of my professors in design school said “when you design a pillow with angles get back to me! Until then, learn.”

    I wonder what it would cost to recreate this home today as new construction not to buy and remodel. Of course here in the southern part of Florida where I live I am pretty sure a flat roof would not meet hurricane code.

    • @Frank-ju8qr
      @Frank-ju8qr 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Since the place the tree is standing on has rocks instead of the floor that's used throughout the building so I think that acts as the drainage

    • @thebeastortiz
      @thebeastortiz 7 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Frank Tiemens No, I meant how do you keep the entire place dry? It is an indoor-outdoor house after all. Wouldn't it make the entire place humid?

    I like it. My only concern is heating and cooling a building with that much glass. They did not say, but I assume that they replaced all the glazing with dual pane glass.
    Evan modern dual panes leak a lot of heat, so they would gain some efficiency, but it will never be as tight as a normal house.
