Interesting design.
Can you post a single overall floor plan? The angles and rotation of the current pictures are a little confusing.
But other than that, it's looking good!
There you go hope that makes it better to understand the layout
My friend is a fan of the house in the 1950s syfy movie Forbidden Planet so he asked me to design something that would have the vibe of the original set from the movie without it being a copy of the one on the set. After lots of conversations this is the final product except that now he has decided the floors should be shinny black stone. The house was designed to be occupied by one adult and a occasional guest, he is a retired machinist so a workshop was a must so was a hobby room since he is a artist painter and stain glass maker.
His present house has a tiny bathroom so the first request actually was a very large bathroom.

I'm a big fan of these houses as well. There is something about tight plots, maybe the great feeling you have when you successfully can squeeze a beautiful home in such difficult spaces. Here is an example which I had bookmarked long time ago:

Love the link to the Euclid house, great use of space, floor plan and it fits just right in with the adjacent houses.

Very cool design, Hector.
I see a lot of this type of houses around here.
I'd love to see what the interior is like.
Was it done for fun or was it a real project?
Best,

Thank you , it was done for fun having in mind the elevations and narrow lots of the row houses i see when i am in SF....i always have a loose floor plan when i draw structures,maybe i will take this one further and do a floor plan.

A space to exhibit sculpture and art, the structure keeps reminding me of japan so maybe at Japanese art space.
There is a seaside community north of San Francisco with this name and the houses are all clad in weathered shingles.
this is an old design done with Sketchup 6
Row house for a San Francisco city lot....you find these more and more tucked in between the old row houses in the city neighborhoods.
