SM10 is a 3-unit condominium project located in a prevalent residential neighborhood in Santa Monica, California. The 2-story building with semi-subterranean parking was crafted to fit into the urban fabric consisting of 2 to 3-story building masses. Key volumetric subtractions provide a central entry court along the northern side-yard with an open stair connecting all floors, and private patios and terraces at the front and rear elevations. The material palette is understated yet rich featuring bush hammered stone cladding, smooth cement plaster and bronze colored aluminum.
