The home’s exterior is wrapped in large anodized aluminum slats, which are held onto the structure with 3M double-sided tape. The owner of the home was a scientist, manager and vice president at 3M, so using this product was a natural fit. 3M developed the high-strength tape for use in aircraft production.

The home’s layout consists of two courts with bays holding private and public functions on either side. The courts help let in plenty of natural light while giving users a place to access the outside world. A large clerestory lets in southern and northern light, and a cantilevered trellis protects the patio from the California sun. Inside, a neutral pallet with a single material for flooring creates a calming space.
