According to the architects, this living space in Brentwood, California, romantically blends modern and Mediterranean style. The house was created for two artists, husband and wife.

Both were passionate about crafting every detail of the interior and recreating the spirit of Italy and New York on the upper floors.
He wanted modernity and she craved romance. Designer Marc explains that the style is individual for each floor. This is where decisions regarding the use of light and filling the living space are embodied. The house plan features open, cleanly laid out contours of spaces that flow from one to the other.
Thick, clay colored walls with many deep portals create constantly changing light sculptures.Like many of Marc’s designs, the pool is joined to the edge of the “canyon” by a large glass construction, which produces a dazzling effect indoors and outdoors. The famous photographer Julius Shulman called the house “cellular architecture”. Customers clarified, “Every time we’re home, we feel like we’re on vacation.”.

The use of colors and materials brilliantly captures the essence of the surroundings.
