The house was raised four feet to make this room possible.
When this family purchased their home, they quickly discovered the basement didn't qualify as habitable square footage under current planning and building codes. Two solutions were explored: excavating the basement to meet ceiling height requirements, or lifting the house off its foundation and building a new level beneath it. Both options came in at comparable cost.

Raising the home by four feet unlocked ten-foot ceilings on the new first floor, allowing the kitchen, dining, and living areas to come together in a light-filled space designed for daily life. The result is a home that works the way the family always imagined it could.

Carmel Ave Transitional, where the unexpected answer turned out to be the right one.

No second story meant no borrowed light from above. So skylights became part of the design language instead. A corridor filled with warm light, glimpses of blue sky in the kitchen, and a venting glass ceiling over the primary shower. Evelyn Avenue Bungalow, where the constraint became the idea.

Meet Aska Wieloch-Kim, Principal at Eisenmann Architecture. She has an uncanny ability to find the elegant solution inside a complex problem, through color, proportion, or a detail that makes everything else click. She leads many of our most significant residential projects, and clients consistently feel at ease in her hands.

Before architecture, she sailed the Atlantic at 18 as crew on a 154-foot Polish tall ship. These days she watches birds, hugs trees, and brings that same attentiveness to every home she designs.

More from Martis Camp Hillside, currently in design.

An indoor lap pool looking out to the hillside. An outdoor kitchen and deck designed for gathering at scale. Views of the forest from every level, with every bedroom opening to a balcony or terrace. At 9,000 square feet, this is a home built for year-round life in Tahoe, with room for family, guests, and everything in between.

From the street, Tree House Modern gives very little away. Dark siding, careful proportions, a warm glow at dusk. Step inside and it opens up completely. Warm, bright, and considered at every turn.

There's a moment in every project where a detail earns a closer look. This custom oak shelving is one of them.

The joinery is precise and considered, designed to feel almost invisible until it isn't. The shelves themselves are sized and positioned to hold objects with intention, leaving room for the client's own eye to complete the composition.

The exterior is dark and composed. The interior is something else entirely.

Tree House Modern started as a split-level home in need of reorganization. By capturing unused attic volume and expanding into the former garage, the home gained the space and flexibility the family needed without building up. A relocated front door reoriented the entry, and the kitchen was moved to the heart of the home.

The result is bright, playful, and full of character. Pale blue cabinetry, a sculptural folded ceiling the team nicknamed the "paper airplane," and enough natural light to make the whole thing sing. The fun, it turns out, was always just around the corner.
