The centerpiece of our Modern Artifact project: a sculptural staircase. More than just a transition between floors, it is the home's elegant spine and a built-in, living art piece. Its sinuous curves play with light making it an ever-changing study of shadow and form.

Modern living, centered around the courtyard. 🌿 Wrapping the living spaces around this central outdoor space allows this home to blur the lines between indoors and out. Studio VARA provided a full range of services to weave the architecture, interiors, furnishings, and landscape into a seamless, integrated whole.

This primary suite is a dream—the plum textured wallpaper against that orange velvet headboard is such a sophisticated play on color. We’re leaning into the 'joy'! It’s the ultimate spot to wake up to the sunrise and watch the fog roll in over the city.

Studio VARA, in collaboration with EHDD Architecture and Bogard Construction, officially broke ground on the Santa Cruz City Schools Educator Housing project! 👏
This isn't just a construction milestone; it’s an investment in the people who shape our community's future. By providing affordable educator housing, we are ensuring that teachers can live in the same neighborhoods where they inspire the next generation.
Huge thanks to the team: @ehdd_architecture , @bogardconstruction , @ftfengineering , Ifland Engineers, and @jlja_landscape !
