Tien Shimizu Residence

A second story addition transformed the small cottage ranch that once occupied this lot to a new home. Large openings within the main living spaces frame the picturesque ocean view and opens the indoor space to the exterior entertaining areas.

The spaces were zoned and constructed so that the main rooms, the living room and second floor family room, are oriented to capture the beautiful ocean view. An outdoor deck extends from the family room and The kitchen is also part of the main space and positioned to have morning light sitting adjacent to the exterior patio with an outdoor cooking area.

Solar panels are incorporated to provide clean energy for the new residence.
