Heid & Malina
Albion, California
Shingles and Water Towers are iconically emblematic in Mendacino California.
When repeat (Peterborough, NH and Mendacino County, CA) clients Heid/ Malina asked for a new studio/guest house in the form of a water tower the budget quickly suggested a simple box structure, material & trimmed to look like a water tower – effectively like two toned side trim on a car.
Sited with a view to the Pacific Ocean, the water tower typical exterior stairway culminates in a love seat facing the ocean, a love seat derivative of the windblown Maxell ad and the ‘50s chair.
