Each home is a unique response to its site, its owners, and the way they want to live.

Topanga Canyon Residence
New Construction

Topanga Canyon Residence

A 4,200 sq ft net-zero home nestled into a canyon hillside. Rammed earth walls provide thermal mass, while a green roof integrates the structure with the surrounding chaparral landscape. Floor-to-ceiling glass frames views of the canyon and Santa Monica Mountains.

4,200 SF · Net-Zero · AIA Design Award 2024
Silver Lake Hillside
Renovation

Silver Lake Hillside

A 1960s post-and-beam home transformed into a modern family residence. We removed interior walls to create open living spaces, added a cantilevered deck overlooking the reservoir, and wrapped the house in weathered steel and western red cedar.

2,800 SF · Featured in Dwell · 14-Month Build
Pacific Palisades Estate
New Construction

Pacific Palisades Estate

A 6,500 sq ft contemporary estate designed around a central courtyard with a reflecting pool. The home features a disappearing glass wall system that opens the living space to the garden, an outdoor kitchen, and a guest suite with private entrance.

6,500 SF · 5BR/5.5BA · LEED Gold
Venice Beach Modern
New Construction

Venice Beach Modern

A narrow-lot challenge turned into a 3-story vertical home with rooftop terrace. Perforated metal screens filter light and provide privacy from neighboring properties. The ground floor features a studio space that opens to a private garden.

2,400 SF · 25' Lot · LA Business Journal Award
Malibu Beach Retreat
Renovation

Malibu Beach Retreat

A respectful renovation of a 1970s beachfront property, maintaining its casual character while upgrading for modern living. New hurricane-rated windows, radiant floor heating, and a complete kitchen and bath overhaul. The original exposed beam ceiling was preserved.

3,100 SF · Oceanfront · 10-Month Renovation
Pasadena Craftsman Addition
Addition

Pasadena Craftsman Addition

A 1,200 sq ft addition to a 1920s Craftsman bungalow, designed to be indistinguishable from the original structure. Matching period details, exposed rafters, clinker brick, art glass, while adding a primary suite, family room, and modernized kitchen.

1,200 SF Addition · Period-Matched · Historic Review Approved
