SurfHouse






Nice Beach House ideas,

The Surfhouse was designed by XTEN Architecture is Californian house design in Hermosa Beach, California, USA. The Surfhouse’s architectural concept maximizes space, light and views while also creating a sense of privacy and retreat for the owners, a young couple, on a busy beachside street. The Californian residential architecture, Surfhouse sits like an abstract block of weathered wood a few blocks from the Pacific Ocean in Hermosa Beach Property. The site is incredibly small, subtracting for setbacks leaves an allowable building area that is only 23-feet wide x 29-feet deep x 30-feet high.

The facade of Surfhouse by XTEN Architecture is made from rough sawn, black stained cedar planks with volumetric openings at primary program spaces and a system of identical 2? x 5? casement windows arrayed across the secondary elevations for specific views and ventilation.

The Hermosa beach Surfhouse interior is all light and air, with bamboo floors and walls of glass that slide away to bring the beach side environment inside.
