How one home embodies history and personality through design and materials. By Tyler Kobick

ILLING A

The Radiant Hills House, tucked away in the serene Oakland Hills, embodies the harmonious fusion of the curated reuse of salvaged materials, the original home’ s mid-century design, and mindfully modern functionality. Letting the materials guide the vision, this project reflects the personal vision of the Principal Architect at Design Draw Build( DDB), Tyler Kobick, AIA. The architect-owner’ s renovation and additions to this 1949 home have transformed it into a vibrant living space serving as a family home, a home office, and a small multi-family neighborhood daycare. Revived with a critical regionalist approach, the home is at its core a response to place and the local environment, with a number of colorful twists and turns along the way.
