INTRODUCTION

The Sunnyvale Eichler Project is a thoughtful restoration and reimagination of a classic mid-century modern home. Designed by Karina Marshall, this project pays homage to the original Eichler aesthetic while seamlessly integrating modern functionality and minimalism.

After a 1990s remodel stripped the home of its signature wood paneling and architectural character, the vision was clear: to restore the home’s soul, making it feel as though it had been untouched for decades while enhancing its livability for a modern lifestyle.

DESIGN HIGHLIGHTS

Bringing the Eichler Back to Life

•Restoration of Eichler’s signature warm wood elements, including mahogany cabinetry, wall panels, and trim, to bring back the home’s mid-century charm.

•Thoughtful preservation of the original layout, keeping the kitchen and dining area separate, a decision made after the homeowners lived in the space and determined it suited their lifestyle.

•Strategic spatial reconfiguration of the primary suite, transforming an underutilized footprint into a luxurious dressing room, double vanity, double shower, and two-person air-jet tub

Kitchen & Dining Area

•Retention of the original kitchen-dining separation, widened entryways, and expanded glass atrium views, enhancing the home’s flow without removing defining architectural elements.

•Stunning yellow Heath Ceramics tile backsplash, a nod to the home’s mid-century roots, paired with custom mahogany cabinetry.

•Hidden luxury: Sleek custom mahogany handles and a concealed coffee bar with a beautifully finished interior, ensuring functionality without disrupting the minimalist aesthetic.

Primary Suite Transformation

•A masterclass in space optimization, where the original oversized bedroom and tiny ensuite were reimagined to accommodate:

•A dressing room with custom closets

•A double vanity and double shower

•A two-person air-jet bathtub

•Textured layers of Rombini tile, Terrazzio walls and floors, and Progetto plumbing fixtures, creating an intimate, spa-like retreat.

Guest Bath

•Bold burnt-orange Japanese porcelain tile, perfectly complementing mahogany paneling for a seamless wraparound aesthetic.

•Custom color-matched fixtures, including a coated showerhead and metal trim details around the tile and glass.

•Despite its small footprint, the meticulous attention to detail makes this bathroom a standout feature of the home.
