Klopf Architecture was challenged to design Atrium House, an Eichler-inspired 21st-Century, energy efficient new home that would replace a dilapidated 1940s home for a family of three in Belmont, California.

The home follows the gentle slope of the hillside while the overarching post-and-beam roof provides an unchanging datum line.
