- Walking into Tyler and Jessica's Streng home you are instantly taken back by the indoor atrium covered in succulents and Cacti. Their home is one of among 3,800+ homes that Streng Bros and Architect Carter Sparks built in the Sacramento Valley. Streng Bros. was a company founded by Jim and Bill Streng in the 1950s and are often recognized for their unique blend of modernist principles with practical suburban living. Carter Sparks was the primary Architect that worked alongside Bill and Jim Streng to develop these homes. Carter Sparks was an architect based in Sacramento, California, who gained prominence for his mid-century modern designs. His architectural style often emphasizes clean lines, open spaces, and integration with nature.
You can absolutely tell the amount of work and detail that Tyler and Jessica put into their home. Let's not forget to mention the attention to detail when it comes to all their furnishings, ceramics and decor from the vintage Eames furnishings to their entire Stan Bitters collection alongside local ceramicists.
Both Streng Bros. and Carter Sparks have left indelible marks on the architectural landscape of California, contributing to the rich tapestry of mid-century modernism in the region. Their innovative designs continue to be cherished and celebrated by enthusiasts of modern architecture.

Thanks!
Thanks soo much!! Means alot ❤️❤️
I like how these guys are actually LIVING in this house - which is what these homes were intended for; not to be museum pieces :)
Agreed!
Yeah that is very easy to say when you got deep pockets and get the luxury to be a dignifying space living hoarder. THE WAY THESE californians boast about their houses , to me is repuslsive and very very hypocritical ....THAT WHOLE PLACE JUST FOR 3 PEOPLE ? ...GIVE ME A BREAK !!! DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY PEOPLE COULD LIVE IN THAT HOUSE !!!!! DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY HOMELESS AND LATIN POLITICAL REFUGIES COULD USE THAT HOUSE ? SMH!! DO BETTER CALIFORNIA !!!
@@openspace.series WHEN A RE YOU GONNA SHOW THESE GREAT CALIFORNIAN HOUSES BEEING USED WITH EMPATHY?
Bless these homeowners they understood the assignment and killed the interiors ❤
🤝
When I found this channel, it was a breath of fresh air!! I love everything about people who love modern homes, architects and designers that make it HOME!
Thank you Open Space for sharing!!
I grew up right THERE, literally a stones throw from this particular Carter Sparks Home. Tyler is spot on, there is a dearth of homes in the Greater Sac region that were inspired by the Mid-Century Modern aesthetic. There is absolutely an underdog aspect to the Sac Modern scene. Gorgeous interiors and those plants and ceramics are divine, kudos!
This has become my favourite series on youtube. Each house has their own story, and I love how every home owner express their gratitude for living in such a beautiful space. Hope to one day find a place like this and maybe be featured ;) you never know.
Glad you enjoy it! And we'll be here waiting for when the time comes and you find your perfect space ✨
Wow such a gorgeous home! It also seems to have found the perfect owners, they seem so appreciative of the design and the history of the building! giving it their own touch while keeping the original intention of the designers at the same time. wonderful! (im also immensely jealous of them being able to have an indoor garden)
Fantastic! Yes, I love this channel!
You guys are so lucky to be living in this masterpiece
You guys do Carter Sparks proud! Such a great house, with great people to celebrate it!
These videos are such a genuine delight. The shared language of mid-century modern comes through them all, but the unique style of each architect and builder/developer is there, with the wonderful character and personality of each owner showing through. I am really enjoying the series, and so glad that people like Tyler and Jessica ( and possibly, Betty! ) appreciate their homes so palpably and are willing to "let us all in" to see what makes them so special. Thank you.
Thanks for the kind words and for watching! And we couldn't agree more, the owners are doing an amazing job
Incredible house. Thanks for sharing!
Beautiful home with a fantastic atrium. The integration of the homes hard surfaces and the softness of plants is refreshing to see.
Couldn't agree more!
I'd definitely buy one of these kinds of homes. Any architecture that connects the indoors to the outdoors is the best kind. Love the mid-century modern movement.
You deserve a greater following―your content is always enjoyable and high quality!
I appreciate that!
I love your home!!! Thank you for sharing Tyler. I’ve been waiting for this to air since you told me about it last summer
Absolutely beautiful. Knowledgeable owner who really knows the history of the home. Very pleasurable.
Absolutely ✨
very beautiful home, I hope you have a wonderful time with your daughter there.
Little Betty is a 💫
Amazing home! Great film as usual!
Thanks so much!
Tyler & Jess ..thank you for making this home so incredibly beautiful! My parents would have loved how you have updated, decorated and are enjoying this home as my family did for so many years. You guys were definitely meant to own this house and timing was perfect for that! Enjoy this amazing home as our family did. This video is really special…Thank
you! xoxo Shelly 💕
this is absolutely breathtaking! I love how they leaned in with their decor as well
We couldn’t agree more!
“Leaned in”, sounds like something Gavin Newsom says. 😂
Wow, a beautiful house. Also, finally a parent being a parent. So refreshing to hear.
I just love these videos. It reinforces our ability to keep working toward interior goals for our Streng halfplex! Thank you for all you all do and for showcasing Sacramento, the Streng family and this terrific history.
Let us know how it goes!
Beautiful home!
Formerly from Sacramento and I loved these homes, especially the one with the big terrarium as you went through the front door. Bravo.. I still love them.
Such great homes!
love the balance of elegance and cool.
Yessss ✨✨
Beautiful and Inspiring!
Thank boss 🙂
your home is breathtaking!
Agreed!
An incredible home. Love the history of the home.
The space is beautiful but I LOVE the Stan Bitters pieces throughout the home :)
When that home and some of the earlier Streng homes were built, Sacramento was considered a cow town by the intellectuals residing in the suburbs of San Francisco. But as you can see
there was a sense of style and sophistication in some of the suburban neighborhoods.
💯💯
Beautiful
Thank you!
Beautiful home, family and plants!
He's correct - most people hated these homes when they were built. The saying was, "What - you can't afford a real home?"
Weird times
I like that they’re fans of Mike Giant and hung his prints up in the house. They fit well with the home.
Its my dream to have a house with an atrium like this...not a common style of architecture in my country sadly. Thanks for this episode 🙂
What a dreamy home!❤❤❤😊

Thank you very much!
Very cool!
Lovely living space. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
LOVE IT!
🤝🏼
Damn girl be tall. Fancy tats. Great awesome house. The orange door is so good, looks good enough to eat. So much California style transplanted to the gold coast. Experimental and very large scale on the Island.
Lots to love about the home
💛💛💛
Something about the houses in carmicheal they have character. Even like the trees and lighting feels different.
Fantastic
Thank you! Cheers!
Great parenting approach 100% agree
Agreed!
Inspired by Eichler homes. There are 60 in South Land Park currently we are working with the City of Sacramento establishing a historical district.
Incredible, inspiring and refreshing way to live. I wonder how much vertical space in the ground you need for these cactus. Might try something like this myself. Also really curious for the name the sofas
That house looks familiar😂
Beautiful video! Do you happen to know what camera and lens the videographer uses?
lots of mcm homes by Eichler in Orange County CA
this guy is real as hell
😍😍😍
Yessssss ✨
@@openspace.series simply cool!!)
that painting at @4:53 -anyone know the name or where its from? so nice
Anyone know where those beautiful colorful stools are from??
That looks like mid-century modern mixed with Wabi-sabi, but in American style 😅
Keep it up, love the content, If you need home cleaning services hit us up.
That’s one of those ahtrium houses
Is the atrium covered? I know it gets hot in Sacramento.
Yes, indoor covered atrium ✨
Brought to you by Herman Miller lol
Haha
This house is fantastic if you don't have a cat. World's largest indoor litter box.
is that a good thing?
@@The0neLeprecon Depends how often you clean your cats litter box. 😂
Their business is their own, to me It would be a nice home IF they had no stones indoors. Trying to comprehend the mess, dirt and unhygenic material from stones. It feels like living in a driveway. Fab furniture, colour arrangements are top notch and great taste bar the stones.
Stones and dirt are not unhygienic. Plants are watered and clean.
@@lillianbarker4292 Dirt and stones are full of bacteria and dust microbes Lillian
I'd never guess that this was built in 1976. Maybe 1956. Amazing how classically modernist it is for 76.
In the Northeast, everyone still wants fake shutters and wainscoting. Cookie cutter colonials. Architecture has regressed bigtime currently.
That's what our thought was too, doesn't look the period it was built.. in a good way!
very gate keepy yk
Huh?? What do you mean? We are literally sharing everything with everyone, what else would you want?
Someone meaning an American asked about the cacti bc Americans have been raised to know one think... lawsuits instead of just being intelligent. You know railing is everywhere in the US not bc it is needed (if you compare the built environment in other countries) but bc someone dumb or someone who wants a lawsuit will make it a problem. It is sad that America isn't like other developed countries where space is creatively designed but instead it is then it is ruined with unnecessary lawsuit stoppers. Welcome to a country that keeps headed backwards.
