crescent
Hiding just behind the throngs of Abbot Kinney, an abundantly shaded, pedestrian only footpath curves gently towards Crescent Place Triangle to reveal one of Venice’s lesser known pocket parks, and culminates ultimately in a brief moment of respite.
This sense of easy calm is invited through the residence at ground level by utilizing a predominantly open floor plan and private courtyard, which, when the panel glass sliders are open, become one extended space spanning both inside and out. At the second floor, this language is continued off the master bedroom by orienting an expansive corner deck outwards towards Crescent Place. The additional bedrooms tucked into the back volume above the garage are connected to the main volume by a glass breezeway that floats above the courtyard below. In order to take full advantage of views towards both the Pacific Ocean and the Santa Monica Mountains, the roof deck is used as a pedestal for a swim in place pool and hot tub, as well as built-in outdoor seating.
