  • Estimated Completion Date: 2009

Built for a young family, this 7,500 sf residence in Santa Monica, CA, takes advantage of the views and lot size, creating a family compound that meets the program set forth by the clients. The two-story home is located on a bluff overlooking the Santa Monica Canyon and the Pacific Ocean. The primary living space is a double height volume that looks out over the canyon and opens up to the interior courtyard.

Situated on the second floor, the bedrooms are connected by a bridge that incorporates a viewing and seating area with stair access to the outdoor roof deck. There is a one-story gallery, situated along the north side of the property that connects to the studio, garage and guest area. The residence wraps the entire site, maximizing the interior courtyard space: which, facing south, takes full advantage of the prevailing ocean breezes and solar exposure.
