CALIFORNIA CRAFTSMAN HOME WITH GHERY POP-OUT SPACE


Built in 1959
Extensively renovated in 2004



Rick Cortez was the designer, 
Frank Ghery added a pop-out to 
serve as master bedroom, to take in
the night stars.

The dark wood floors and built-in shelves 
are Spanish cedar, sourced from 
"reclaimed barn floors
from the East Coast," 
according to the 
original listing.

Craftsman style homes combine 
simple design
with natural materials such as wood
to emphasize the individual craftsman
over the industrial revolution aesthetic.

There are 5 bedrooms, 3 and a half baths
and the Chef's kitchen 
has the largest BOOS
butcher block ever manufactured. 

This rustic canyon home is in Santa Monica.
