## About

### Houzz Badges

- 1,000 Ideabook Saves

David Reddy AIA / R&D Architects transform common sticks and stucco into sequences of space and light that connect people to each other and to the natural world. Our work engages the city and provides detachment from it at the same time, amplifying and enhancing the experience of living through our senses.  Our projects touch the planet lightly, setting the stage for living, working, and playing in the 21st century. Architecture has the power to transcend the ordinary.

David Reddy AIA / R&D Architect' art is rooted in the choreography of space and light, the careful composition of form, and the beauty of simple utility.  They are building a humane and sustainable world, one 2x4 at a time.

- [Venice Wedge](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/venice-wedge-pj-vj~615764)
  - Location: Los Angeles, CA
  - Photos: 11
  - Description: BRIDGING THE VOID 4 UNIQUE LOFTS, PRIVATE FROM THE STREET AND FILLED WITH LIGHT The Wedge creates four private interior worlds at one of the busiest intersections in Venice. On a triangular property, curved at its creation to follow the arc of a canal rather than than the flow of traffic, the lofts inevitably face into the headlights of oncoming traffic. The facade prevents the intrusion of Venice Boulevard, simultaneously embracing and protecting private lives from the energy of the city. Formi…
- [Em\_Ma](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/em-ma-pj-vj~2924760)
  - Location: Los Angeles, CA
  - Photos: 11
  - Description: A DIVIDING LINE ON THE BORDER BETWEEN A NEIGHBORHOOD AND A BUSY HIGHWAY 12 single family homes developed under the LA Small Lot Ordinance, this housing block is on the line between Manchester Boulevard and the walled Kentwood neighborhood. Em\_Ma breaches the wall, facing out in both directions to reclaim a piece of the city from the automobile.

- [Breeze House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/breeze-house-pj-vj~171806)
  - Location: Los Angeles, CA
  - Photos: 14
  - Description: A HOUSE WITH TWO FACES PRIVATE LIVING 25 YARDS FROM THE VENICE BOARDWALK We think of this as the Janus House for the way it connects two seemingly contradictory aspects of the city: one is the lushly landscaped walk street near the Venice Boardwalk, and the other is the gritty, slightly dangerous urban alley. Two volumes of light organize the dual nature of the spaces. The house resolves a seeming paradox: the two oppositional aspects are interdependent. The architecture integrates artwork by Na…
- [Rialto House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/rialto-house-pj-vj~171800)
  - Location: Venice, CA
  - Photos: 7
  - Description: URBAN SANCTUARY A 3500 SF HOME NEAR ABBOT KINNEY BOULEVARD IN VENICE Public and private areas of this house are separated by and open onto an elevated courtyard that invites daylight deep into the interior, enabling indoor/outdoor Southern California living. The private enclave is 500' from the most important pedestrian street in Venice. Features include solar heating and photovoltaic power.
- [Venice Beach Boxes](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/venice-beach-boxes-pj-vj~171791)
  - Location: Los Angeles, CA
  - Photos: 10
  - Description: BOXES OF LIGHT SIX FREESTANDING TOWNHOMES IN VENICE BEACH Venice Beach is littered with shoddy, boxy apartments built to house the motley assortment of bodybuilders, surfers, waiters, screen writers, and others who were drawn to Venice in the 1960's, 70's, and 80's. The Beach Boxes boxes subvert the stereotype by taking ordinary experience to a higher level. Located on a main boulevard four blocks from the Venice boardwalk, six sustainable homes surround a sequence of internal courtyards. The si…

## Community Q&A

**Q: Love-The-Dining-Table,Who-Is-The-Manufacturer?(sorry-space-key-is-not-working)** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: It is a custom table, w/ solid caesarstone ends and 1/2" caestarstone top.  The top is supported by a welded tubular steel frame, mechanically connected to the ends (legs.)  The caesarstone top has a glued on piece at the edge, to conceal the steel and give the appearance of solidity.  Caesarstone glue joints, if done well, are not visible.

The table matches the kitchen countertop, visible at the left.
