Nice scale and proportion. I don’t see as much of a connection to Meier but I do see see a strong connection with Baeza and Pawson (reductive-minimalist). There is an elegant use of materials, although I do agree, curtain wall vs storefront would have been much nicer...it would have been very $. Very nice job creating space. Nice scale and proportion.

I am sure all the other regional 'burbs there are el rancho mcgrande or those two story greeorgian entrances with a million square feet of big roof. but I agree the refinement is missing especially in the glazing. meier, yes, but especially campo baeza do it with an ever cooler eye for highly controlled editing of space and detail and pawson still owns the minimalist bath. the dusk/night photos are beautiful. very nice house, and tip-o-the-hat to a developer with a ‘modernist’ neighborhood.

Seems to be an appropriate layout of the space and all. However...I have issues about the glazing. For such emphases on veiws, one would think that the mullions wouldn't be so distracting, thick, and heavily gridded. Must have been a cost issue, because if these windows weren't ment to be operable, which is a shame, I would have went with a curtain wall for that full photo effect. That is all. Hm…..very Meier.
