The space was to be overlayed with the Client’s memories, a collage of spatial experiences and materials that could be reminiscent of his favorite boutique hotels in Malaysia and Indonesia; his residences in Paris, France; of negotiating the narrow trails and stone crevices while climbing in Tibet are just a few examples evoked in the main circulation...

What first greets the visitor to this Santa Monica, CA house is the generous front setback and landscape design by Z Freedman Landscape Architecture. A lighted series of steps lead up around a soft bed of fescue grass, and mature sycamore tree, past a stand of saplings.

THE GRACEFUL HOUSE
It is “polite architecture” in the historic center of a medieval town, a major restructuring that takes a contemporary language, while continuing to communicate with the historic location.

The balcony railings are contrasted with the lightness of the glass plates and the materiality of wrought iron. The compartm... More
