This lodge features a wraparound covered porch providing distinct views to the landscape. From the front porch, one can look over the grand entrance to survey the existing orchard and the untouched hillsides beyond. Toward the back of the estate, a stepping stone path cuts through a bioswale filled with lilies, clusters of ornamental grasses and perennials. Photography by Marion Brenner

After sighting the elevations (surveying) and flagging the entire wall, the step- down footings are dug, Then, the vertical / horizontal rebar is set & tied together and finally the forms are built and connected all the way down... next is pouring the concrete into the footings with the pump truck! Notice the black silt fence running along the entire wall area. It's designed to prevent any runoff to the street (erosion control) and preventing any silting into any water sources

Set upon an oversized and highly sought-after creekside lot in Brentwood, this ​two story home and full guest home exude a casual, contemporary farmhouse style and vibe. The main residence boasts 5 bedrooms and 5.5 bathrooms, each ensuite with thoughtful touches that accentuate the home’s overall classic finishes. The master retreat opens to a large balcony overlooking the yard accented by mature bamboo and palms. Other features of the main house include European white oak floors, recessed lighting, built in speaker system, attached 2-car garage and a laundry room with 2 sets of state-of-the-art Samsung washers and dryers. The bedroom suite on the first floor enjoys its own entrance, making it ideal for guests. The open concept kitchen features Calacatta marble countertops, Wolf appliances, wine storage, dual sinks and dishwashers and a walk-in butler’s pantry. The loggia is accessed via La Cantina bi-fold doors that fully open for year-round alfresco dining on the terrace, complete with an outdoor fireplace. The wonderfully imagined yard contains a sparkling pool and spa and a crisp green lawn and lovely deck and patio areas. Step down further to find the detached guest home, which was recognized with a Decade Honor Award by the Los Angeles Chapter of the AIA in 2006, and, in fact, was a frequent haunt of Frank Gehry who inspired its cubist design. The guest house has a bedroom and bathroom, living area, a newly updated kitchen and is surrounded by lush landscaping that maximizes its creekside setting, creating a truly serene oasis.

This lakefront design called for an inovative approach to include usable outdoor entertaining areas easily accessible from the indoor spaces of the summer residence. Perched on a rock outcrop, the residence enjoys decks in the trees overlooking the lake, decks midway down stone steps to sleeping areas above a boathouse and decks at the beachfront and dock.
