Repost from @dwellmagazine Just south of San Francisco, in the “un-flashy” town of Pacifica, sits this breezy beach house that recently emerged from a years-long fog. “It was just a mess,” says architect Malcom Davis of @malcolmdavisarchitecture when he first saw the home. “But it had good bones, and a great view.” When the owners decided to move forward and work with Davis on a renovation, there was a common understanding: It had to exemplify the beauty of thoughtful simplicity. It couldn’t be oversized or aggressively modern. It had to feel classic, but also embrace life on the coast. In a simple gabled structure, the result remains fairly low-key. “It feels like an unassuming beach house,” Davis says. “We added space, but we didn’t add mass to the street. It’s simple, but it’s also interesting to see how much you can do without impacting the whole neighborhood.” See how the Pacifica beach house gets its day in the sun at the link in bio. – Photos by @joefletcherphoto Construction by @vonnegutthoreau Cabinetry by @brimerworkshop #renovation #remodel #beachhouse #pacifica #liveworkspace #moderndesign #modernarchitecture #interiordesign https://www.instagram.com/p/CCV_ogmlEu7/?igshid=1p4wab7g27gi9
