Project Details
Cradled at the base of the Santa Monica bluffs across the roar of the Pacific Coast Highway stands the original 6,000 sf Lewin Residence, designed in 1938 by Richard Neutra. To the south of the residence, across 100 yards of beach and a bike path, lies the Pacific Ocean. The owners sought a complimentary addition consisting of three distinct areas that would create a cloistered environment. Each lies in conversation with the nuances of the original structure.
The first and second, a new garage and servant’s living area, create a wall to the street, sheltering the residence from the traffic beyond and forming a courtyard against which the original house serves as a backdrop. The third, an entertainment pavilion, is enclosed on three sides by glass and is centrally positioned and linked to the original building by an arched glass bridge.
