架构师提供的文本描述。据说，建筑师约瑟夫艾希勒建造了超过1万他的几乎全玻璃大教堂屋顶的房屋，这是第一次普及现代主义在加利福尼亚州。他们非常受欢迎，为了满足市场需求，模仿者突然出现。这些客户购买了其中一个伪艾希勒迫切需要修理，并需要增加空间，以说明他们日益增长的家庭。他们想保持现有房子的全玻璃般的精神。为了达到这个目的，所有的玻璃都需要用高性能的绝缘板来切换。在可能的情况下，在结构上增加了绝缘。一间新的主卧室套房位于现有结构的外面，与一条短走廊相连，使主房子的低屋顶免于受到限制。加注物的屋顶向上上升，从一个小作家的住处俯瞰山谷，从主套房的床上看到围绕着房产的加州梧桐树。

Text description provided by the architects. It is said that architect, Joseph Eichler built over 10,000 of his nearly all-glass basilica-roofed houses which first popularized modernism in California. They were so popular that imitators popped up just to satisfy market demands. The clients bought one of these pseudo-Eichlers in desperate need of repair and needed to add space to account for their growing family. They wanted to keep the all-glass spirit of the existing house. To achieve this, all the glass needed to be switched out with high performance insulated panels. Insulation was added to the structure where possible. A new master bedroom suite was positioned just outside of the existing structure and connected with a short hallway, allowing freedom from the confinement of the low roof of the main house. The roof of the addition soars upwards to allow views down the valley from a small writer’s perch, and of California sycamores around the property from the bed of the master suite.
