This is a house for a cinematographer.  The house carefully frames its views. Clerestory windows catch glimpses of palm trees and bounce soft light from under the deep eaves.

The walls of the interior were punctured with openings to allow each room to “borrow” light from its neighbor.

Located on a quiet street in Santa Monica, Sunset Park was to be built on the existing footprint of an abandoned late 1960’s tract home. Bittoni Architects Bittoni Architects The goal was to create a project that was modest on the exterior but spacious and minimal on the interior. Interior walls were removed in order open up large gathering spaces. The living spaces are all connected by a large vaulted ceiling with large skylights that embrace natural light. A small addition was added in the back of the house to accommodate a new master bedroom which is identified by vertical grain cedar siding, framing the backyard deck. The existing garage was relocated to be accessed from the alley in order to free up space along the sid... More
