This timeless Ranch Style design has strong horizontal character respecting the grade. Simple yet playful massing adds interest and is consistant with the basic aesthetics. Integrated covered porches and trellis elements softens and provideds interesting shadow patterns on the facades.

Complications due to poor soil conditions and adjacency forced a concrete caisson and grade beam foundation system. Effiency of design drove the configuration of the footprint to follow engineering limits for spacing of caissons and length of grade beams.
