Tradition meets Functionality in Obreval Architecture’s design
Obreval Architecture’s Carpinteria ADU, situated in Carpinteria, California, showcases a contemporary take on Accessory Dwelling Units (ADU), blending functionality and tradition. Positioned within a circular patio, the design prioritizes the seamless integration of outdoor and indoor living, creating a tranquil living space. A notable design element is the semicircular cutout enveloping the dwelling, inviting ample natural light. Emphasizing outdoor space on a small backyard, the glass cutout maximizes sunlight, fostering an airy atmosphere. The interior features exposed wood beams, combining rustic and modern aesthetics, adding character to the space.
