Description

Steps to Abbot Kinney and Venice beach, this dynamic urban intervention is a rare private residence by Viennese architects Coop Himmelb(l)au, and the first project built by the Austrian team in the United States. Here the architects explode the constraints of functionalism into a thousand pieces, in the process creating a complex sculptural form interwoven with the apparatus of living. This private gated compound with 4 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms is one of Venice's most prized architectural masterpieces. An impeccable Bulthaup kitchen, with the finest European fixtures and appliances, sets an uncompromising standard of elegance inside, disguised by the raw drama of the unique exterior. The expressive use of concrete, glass, and structural steel is tempered by an open floorplan with direct connections to the landscape, an organic-form sculptural shelving installation, natural wood ceilings, and the play of daylight with cool ocean breezes throughout and atop the generous roof deck.
