Hovering above its flat-roofed midcentury original, this transparent addition in Carmel, California, was designed for two renowned artists. Project architect Eridk Dyar, speaking of home's principal designer John Thodos, FAIA, says “[Thodos] framed the pavilion in a steel structure in a subtle nod to the preferred medium of the client’s sculptural work. He resolved challenges of detailing and scale with an eye to enhancing the floating quality of the space, as experienced both by its occupants and passersby.”
