Open Saturday, February 18th 11am-6pm for the VENICE MODERN HOME TOUR - http://venice.modernhometours.com/" target="_blank" class="BoldUnderlined">venice.modernhometours.com

 

Located on a large lot in the tranquil Mar Vista neighborhood about 3 miles from the excitement and chaos of Venice Beach, this gated compound of several buildings forms an urban oasis sheltered from the world outside. In the award-winning architect’s signature style, sculptural building forms and folded roof planes create a dramatic impact from the street. Inside, strategically placed but seemingly haphazard window perforations frame specific views, with walls of glass opening onto the swimming pool and protected inner courtyard. A separate pool house and guest wing offer restrained counterpoints, mirroring one another at opposite ends of the open outdoor space. Here we find the marriage of high art, quality craftsmanship and functionality, with a sensible site design and open plan that make the home infinitely livable. Private, gated compound, 5 BD, 4.5 BA in 3,620 SF.
