Set within a quintessential Southern California beach neighborhood, this residence reinterprets the gabled roof form through a Scandinavian lens, balancing honest geometry with understated sophistication. Warm wood from the exterior extends into the vaulted second floor ceilings, bringing a cozy coastal vibe to the living spaces with white washed ceilings, while floor-to-ceiling glass frames views of the Dana Point coastline.

The narrow lot encouraged a thoughtful approach to space, with circulation zones like the Entry Hall and Vestibule doubling as a Guitar Studio and Lounge. The rooftop deck, designed to capture more sweeping ocean views, was thoughtfully integrated within height limits to preserve the clarity of the iconic gabled form. The result is a contemporary coastal residence defined by simplicity, warmth, and a seamless dialogue between indoors and out.
