Architecture defined by the interplay of material, landscape, and movement.

Set into the Westside of Los Angeles, this residence unfolds through a sequence of stone, water, and light. A 180-foot water wall guides the approach to the entry, while cascading infinity edges, expansive terraces, and layered gardens create a seamless connection between the interior and the surrounding landscape. Caravela limestone, Mocha Cream limestone, and oak lend warmth and restraint to the contemporary palette.

Every transition is intentional, creating a residence where architecture, landscape, and city views exist in quiet dialogue.

High above Los Angeles in the Bird Streets, this residence offers a striking perspective on the city below. A series of intimate gardens, suspended walkways, and open living spaces create a sense of discovery, leading to an infinity pool that appears to merge with the skyline. With panoramic views stretching from the San Gabriel Mountains to the Pacific Ocean, the architecture balances dramatic openness with moments of complete seclusion.

A modern expression of California beach living, this Dana Point residence balances expansive ocean views with intimate outdoor spaces. Retractable glass walls, natural oak, and limestone create a warm, understated palette, while layered courtyards offer privacy and protection from the coastal elements. The result is a home that feels both open to its surroundings and grounded in comfort.

Overlooking Lake Folsom, this Northern California residence takes its cues from both the landscape and the clients’ connection to the coast.

A sequence of oak trees, water, stone, and glass shapes the arrival and frames views in every direction. The architecture unfolds across the site, with each wing carefully positioned to capture the changing light from morning to evening while maintaining a strong connection to the lake and surrounding valley.

Inside, a light palette of cream limestone, white and silver metal, and expansive glazing brings a relaxed coastal sensibility to the setting. Cantilevered roofs move across the property like gentle extensions of the landscape, while the pool creates a continuous visual line toward the water beyond.

Designed around art, photography, gathering, and the everyday rituals of home, the residence offers a quiet interpretation of coastal living far from the coast.

Defined by its dramatic structure and expansive views, this West Hollywood residence brings together bold architectural forms with a seamless connection between interior and exterior spaces. Bridge-like elements link the levels of the home, while expansive glass walls open the living spaces onto the surrounding terraces. Gray basalt, limestone, and natural stone create a refined material palette throughout, balancing the home’s industrial character with a sense of warmth and openness.

A study in contrast, proportion, and privacy.

Set against the steep terrain of Beverly Hills, this residence maximizes its limited buildable site through a precise L shaped plan, creating a seamless relationship between the architecture, garden, pool, and surrounding views.

A central courtyard brings natural light deep into the home, while travertine, walnut, crisp white planes, and black metal details create a refined material palette throughout.

Architecture shaped by its site, defined by its details.
