Sprucewood, Bel Air, California
(Click image for description)

​

The house is located in a steeply sloping canyon in the Santa Monica Mountains.  To blend in with the site, as opposed to standing proudly on the hilltop, the house keeps a low profile as it stair-steps up the hill; at no point is it more than twenty feet high.  The red lathe structure floating above the house provides shade for the windows, yet it allows sun-dappled light to the decks lying beneath it.
