This was an inspiration driven by the ability to work from home rather than going to my office in downtown San Francisco, and provide a guest room for our frequent guest. I designed it to sit on top of an old chicken coop foundation I rebuilt. My views to the south out the all glass front provides beautiful views of the wooden valleys below. I benefit from the afternoon sun, by building the front wall of all insulated glass doors. It took me 17 months to build on the weekends. It is 12' x 18' (no bathroom). I am planning to add a small wood stove this year for heat, and a 12' x 12' deck to replace the current stairs next summer.
