California-based studio Terry and Terry Architecture has designed this stunning house in Oakland from the wreckage of a property that was damaged by a firestorm. The rebuilt residence’s interior is made mostly of wood, with an open plan layout and a large balcony, but the standout feature of the house is undoubtedly its sweeping views of the city. Situated high in the Eastbay mountain range, the residents wanted to find a way to embrace the views of Oakland and the bay. Take a look at Terry and Terry’s ‘Skyline’ house, with its breathtaking views, above.
