William Duff Architects (WDA) is sought-after by discerning residential clients attracted to the firm\u2019s well-honed design philosophy of creating a unique sense of place. \u201cFor our residential clients, the lure of the land\u2014whether an urban lot, a suburban parcel or rural acreage\u2014is personal,\u201d observes WDA residential practice leader, Jim Westover, AIA, LEED AP. He continues, \u201cOur architectural and design response is always in harmony with the land and reinforces the connection between people and nature.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlights of WDA\u2019s residential portfolio include the following commissions:
Butterfly House – Childhood memories of courtyard houses in India and the vernacular architecture of Ireland inspired a mixed-heritage couple’s creative wish-list for this suburban residence. Elaborating on the design concept, WDA founder William Duff says, \u201cThe big gesture is the courtyard, which fosters a sense of community, and we maximized the relationship to the land through landscaping to create a feeling of expansiveness.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Golden Oak Residence – Set on bucolic land with sweeping views of the San Francisco Peninsula, this house was designed as a place for retreat and rejuvenation, and William Duff adds, \u201cThrough architecture and design, we created an integrated experience that echoes the natural beauty of the hilltop site.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wheeler Residence – Designed and built to reflect the homeowners\u2019 commitment to sustainability, this house was inspired by the husband\u2019s childhood memories of living in Colorado. William Duff, who also grew up in Colorado, and understands the state\u2019s outdoor appeal, notes, \u201cFor this commission, we sought to capture the essence of a mountainous state like Colorado and all that it has to offer\u2014nature, vistas and a seemingly never-ending big sky.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Jim Westover, whose versatile career in architecture began at the College of Environmental Design at University of California at Berkeley, WDA\u2019s wide-ranging portfolio is, ultimately, all about people. He notes, \u201cOur residential commissions blend profound emotional connections, sometimes lasting a lifetime, to places rooted in the land.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
