Located in Laguna Beach, California, this beautiful residence benefits from a privileged beach front position. Perched atop a coastal promontory,it opens stunning views on the ocean and the horizon. The design solution found by Horst Architects to the owners’ brief is a main residence and a detached guest house, connected by a series of courtyards and communal outdoors spaces. There is an obvious preference for open spaces and transparent vertical surfaces. The boundary between indoors and outdoors is eliminated by the use of sliding, concealed pocket doors. Glass balustrades are used wherever possible, indoors and outdoors, with the same purpose of eliminating every obstacle that could come between the eye and the view. The public spaces are situated on the ground floor, while the private quarters occupy the upper floor. This way the intimacy of the occupants is protected, while still giving them the opportunity of admiring the views from their bedrooms. The Italian touch of Aria Design is felt in almost every detail of the interior design. There are noble materials, soft neutral colors and carefully chosen decoration.
