Rustic Canyon Residence

A 6,700 square foot, 4 bedroom, 4 and 2 half bath residence with full master suite in the Pacific Palisades is designed to completely embrace the physical and visual connection to the outdoor environment. Following the original vision of Duncan Nicholson, who developed the schematic design, this home completely opens up on the ground floor creating one uninterrupted space flowing from the pool courtyard through the open kitchen/dinning/living space and onto the back deck and out to the view of the Pacific Ocean beyond. The home is uniquely adapted to the site utilizing distinct architectural details, such as a bold cantilevered copper eaves line that adjusts based on solar orientation and programatic requirements, or a garden on the north side of the building centered around existing protected California Live Oak Trees. The home is also specifically designed to feature the client's distinctive art collection. Check out more photos with the hashtag #rusticcanyonresidence
