Fairgrove Eichler Homes 1960 | Cupertino, CA
Eichler homes are from a branch of Modernist architecture that have come to be known as “California Modern,” and typically feature glass walls, post-and-beam construction, and open floorplans in a style indebted to Frank Lloyd Wright and Mies van der Rohe. Eichler Homes exteriors featured flat and/or low-sloping A-Framed roofs, vertical 2-inch pattern wood siding, and spartan facades with clean geometric lines. One of Eichler’s signature concepts was to “Bring the Outside In,” achieved via skylights and floor-to-ceiling glass windows with glass transoms looking out on protected and private outdoor rooms, patios, atriums, gardens, and swimming pools. Also of note is that most Eichler homes feature few, if any, front-facing (that is, street-facing) windows, with those that do exist being either small ceiling level windows or small rectangular windows with frosted glass which is contrary to most other architectural designs which have almost all front rooms featuring large windows.

Chillout Sessions XII by Andrew van der Westhuyzen
A homage to Frank Lloyd Wright and Neutra, and the lifestyles their buildings accommodated.
This structure was built for the 2006 movie “When a Stranger Calls.” Apparently it’s not there anymore and wasn’t even a real house but it should have been!
