Wilder Houses

East of the Caldecott Tunnel from Berkeley, in a secluded valley above Orinda, Wilder is a master planned community that offers a relaxed and rural lifestyle.  Swatt + Partners has designed 3 homes in these pastoral hills; their style more modern than their neighbors, but equally at ease with the rolling topography and natural setting.  These 4500-5000 SF homes respond to their individual site conditions with stepped, two-story plans and a simple, honest material palette. Dramatic cantilevered roof overhangs and trellis’ provide shade for terraces below while floor to ceiling glass captures framed views of the valley and Mount Diablo beyond.
