You helped me decide what kind of foundation is best for my future project. Thanks!
That's great to hear! I'm glad the information helped you out.
The Monterey Spanish style embodies the elements of architecture I am drawn to: for example, the second story balcony, the stucco walls, floor to ceiling windows, et al. This style also imbues a classic but informal facade. Warm and welcoming with a more rustic quality which allows for flexibility inside and outside. Landscapes can be designed with formal gardens or natural organic ones. And, of course, a mixture plays well with the versatility of the architecture. Most importantly, the design isn’t pretentious but certainly elegant.
It is indeed a stunning blend of styles that gives it its special charm.
Wonderful presentation ❤️🤗
Thank you so much 🤗
Never knew they had bathrooms, always assumed they had just one for all 9 people😂
Indeed, probably some restrictions on what they can show on prime-time TV in the day.
🏛️I knew there was something I was missing with my 4”x4”x8’ columns, the proportions 😮
🏡❤
So many ideas, I am binge watching 😂
Hope you enjoy!
Wow! So much 🤗
Learn from mistakes 👍
Excellent overview🤗
Thank you! 👍
My style❤

outstanding insights!. I am an EE designing an ADU on an existing lot with a home that meets the maximum size criteria, but is for the most part wheelchair accessible 🦽on the main floor. I grew up in Monterey and was endeavoring to incorporate a Monterey Revival style as per your video. I have read all the “ Not so Big House” books and used Sara’s ideas, but my 1150 SF doesn’t allow for everything 😂 My daughter likes the current design iteration that was originally just a single level with lower pitched intersecting shed roofs with clerestory windows for light. I use Punch Pro 3D CAD, so it s pretty straightforward to alter. Thanks so much for your ideas on poor design. Just finished the cantilevered porches today🤗Happy trails from Austin City Limits Texas 🎸🪗🎺🎷🎻🪕🎹
Howdy! Native Texan here, but I became a Californian. One thing I can say for sure though, is that there are wonderful houses in every corner of the country. Never ceases to fascinate me. Cheers
That was helpful! Thank you
You're welcome!
Thanks
Thank you. I believe the torus fillet congé is 3.75 units. 11.25-7.5.
Also i think you’ve got units for half the abacus extrusion not the full. At the end (18:40).
Yes, I misstated from the full width there.
I'll have to go in and look at that closely.
I believe you Can use UA-cam and overlay text if it turns out corrections are required. So you don’t have to redo it all. Takes a lot of work to make these videos.
hi, i was wondering if you would ever make anymore architectural history videos? your video analysis of french eclectic from a few years ago was great!
Thank you so much! You give me inspiration. I want to spend all of time on this channel, so stick with me, tell your friends, get them to watch, and I should attain a good following to boost my ability to produce more. BTW, chiaroscuro would be a wonderful topic for an architectural themed presentation. Cheers! SR
Glad I discovered your channel! I am a local part time resident of Palm Springs and had the opportunity to docent at Neutra’s Kauffman house garden tour during 2024 Modernism!
How wonderful that you saw it in person! It's really an amazing property in many respects. And thank you for checking out my presentations. Cheers!
Have you created a Doric column including the fluted entasis? That would be a good video.
Yes, I have created the fluted Doric column. Good idea for another video! Thank you
I'll be looking forward to that video. Thanks@@TheHomeDesignMentor
i LOVED this video and i love how you break down the styles. I always loved architecture
Thank you for tuning in and pleased to hear you enjoyed it. Cheers
Absolutely amazing video. Packed full of information. No messing around. Well don.e subscribed!
Welcome aboard! So glad to hear you like it all. Cheers
Of all the TV shows over the years... the Brady house was my favorite BY FAR....
Is it possible to build an Eichler, (or copy) today?
About ten years ago, Houseplans dot com was selling some of the Eichler house plans. A handful were built in Palm Springs over the last few years. But that website is not selling the plans any longer. You can certainly come up with a facsimile of an Eichler house designed for today's standards. Check out my website at midmodpad dot com. I sell variations of the theme there.
Excellent job. I love the design. It is also a great compromise between the facade of the real house in Studio City CA with the impossible layout of the TV stage set.
Thank you, John. Getting it to come together into a realistic house had its comprises, but I'm very pleased that it captures the theme well enough and delivers a decent layout.
fantastic video! thank you for posting!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching, much appreciated.
Awesome home I love the mid century design very spacious.
Thank you so much!
Gorgeous!
Thank you! 😊
How much would cost to build this masterpiece
A billion should cover it +10% for the architect ; )
Great presentation. Do you know who the original architect was? Location in Palm Springs? Also reminds me of the Cody designed home in Indian Wells that was on tour during MCM week in 2019.
Thanks, so glad you found it engaging! I don't know the architect for this place, but it is in the Movie Colony area of Palm Springs. The architecture is also reminiscent of Edward Durrell Stone, and it has a round shaped living room behind that rock wall. Very chic in the day, for sure.
Does Turner's book cover the Greek orders at all? I've not found a great reference for Doric or Ionic entasis since it varied so much
Yes, it does! It has extensive illustrations for the Parthenon as well a few other detailed plates on other Athenian monuments. As for the Greek entasis, it's hard to find much about it because it did vary so much. I think it was quite individualistic per building.
That's awesome! If I had the $$ I sure would build this!
Put it on your vision board, stash some funds, and you can do it one day! And thank you for watching. Cheers
That's actually a really cool family home design
Thanks! Glad you like the scheme. Cheers!
Great to see literacy with Classical style. I've paid close attention to mansions and they always get classical wrong. Typically using random columns, made up proportions, and shoebox rooms. I have a feeling the majority of modern architects can't take on a project like this and execute faithfully. Bravo!
Yes, there is much bad architecture out there, both classical and modern. They don't teach classical design in most universities these days. It's a shame, because it's an extraordinary exercise in scale and proportion, two touchstones of architecture. Of course, my creation or anyone else's can be scrutinized, but for heaven's sake, it's not that hard to learn the proper classical vocabulary. Some books on classical architecture are free too, check on Amazon. Learn it, it's so fascinating! Thank you for watching.
Great.
Glad you enjoyed. Classical architecture is so wonderful!
@@TheHomeDesignMentor absolutely. Classical architecture is the eternal style.
where can i watch more videos like this one?
Such an amazing home...and then that mailbox! Ugh.
I know, right, I could have taken it out, but I thought it best to leave it for the honesty of the presentation.
This is awesome! I own a home made by Donald Wexler too. In Minnesota.
Thanks, so glad you like the presentation. You have a Wexler?! Very cool!
This is a brilliant design! Flipping the exterior to accommodate more of the “Brady” interior was a great idea. I see below that someone wrote, “This is wrong. The downstairs isn’t wide like that on the left and there’s no extra blah blah blah… .” He doesn’t get what you were trying to do; I do. Nicely done sir!
Thank you, Jeffrey! I'm so glad to hear that you like the design. Since it is for a real house, artistic license is appropriate, indeed.
Great use of SKETCHUP very well done, kudos to you.
Many thanks!
The music is AWESOME!
Children's room above the master - did anyone think that out ?
Yes, this was thought about quite a bit. Sound insulation can help, but the idea is to have a lookout on the little ones in case they need help or are in distress. Even if they are misbehaving, you want to know about it for their discipline. Imagine if they were running amuck in another wing of the mansion. That could be problematic too. It's a balance.
This is a priceless video. Thank you so much for walking us through the construction. I'm studying Classical Architecture to get my proportions right and this video really helps to illustrate all the nuances. P.S. It would be amazing if you'd find the time to make similar videos. I'm mainly struggling with Ionic and Corinthian capitals. I have 9 years professional experience in SketchUp and yet modelling those capitals seems impossible to me.
So glad to hear you found the video helpful. That's my objective. And thank you also for suggesting other ideas. I will definitely keep this under consideration and notify you here should I be able to address the Ionic and Corinthian in other videos. Cheers!
@@TheHomeDesignMentor Thanks a lot! I watched your other videos as well, which are also very interesting. Will be looking forward to more construction/tutorial videos from you. Also, it's very good to realize that apparently SketchUp is very popular in American Architecture companies. In Europe (Germany to be more specific) I'm struggling to find a job where they use SketchUp.
Niiice thanks for this
Glad you enjoyed!
Thank you for this.
You're very welcome. Thank you for checking it out!
I LOVE IT!!!!
wonderful. thank you!
Glad you liked it!
