A corner lot in an intown Atlanta neighborhood was cleared to plant the seeds of a small-scale dream home for a couple. Both were GA Tech grads and wanted to combine state-of-the-art construction with a clean modern design that would fit into their bungalow neighborhood. The owners chose to use Polysteel which is a system of insulated forms filled with poured concrete. The system is rated to withstand 180 mph winds and has a very high R value.

The 2600 sq. ft. home is sited back from the street and is modern but retains a roofline that fits into the neighborhood. The owners love to cook and entertain so the kitchen is the center of the home. The smaller scale is opened up with a large entry skylight, glazed stair tower, second story office with a skyline view and rooftop garden deck.
