The conceptual master plan for the Santa Monica Creek Estate is a remodel and an addition of a residential compound set beside a creek in Santa Monica, California.
The estate, composed of four buildings, draws inspiration from the iconic gable house shape, finished in charred wood façade (also known as Shou Sugi Ban). The two-story buildings are sistered through siting, materiality, and form, resulting in a property that reads cohesively from all site angles as well as from the street level.
