About the host

Hosted by Alex

Host profile image

I am both the architect and owner of my just completed dream home here in Venice Beach. I grew up in Menlo Park (the heart of Silicon Valley). I graduated from UC Berkeley with a BA degree in English Literature, and later from SCI-Arc (the Southern California Institute of Architecture) with a Master of Architecture degree. I then worked for Frank Gehry and Associates here in Los Angeles for several years, and later with Ricardo Bofil in Paris and Barcelona, before starting my own practice here in Venice. My studio/ apartment are housed on the second level of the property.

Why they chose this property

Though I purchased the property in 1998, the qualities which originally attracted me to Venice and the Milwood area, stand fully in today's Venice Beach... the town's walk-ability, access to the beach, an artistic, educated and eclectic community, and top, hip eateries, shops and coffee houses.

What makes this property unique

Southern California indoor-outdoor living comes to life in this recently completed unique, architectural gem. 9 foot floor to ceiling walls of glass and sliding doors (some that disappear completely into walls) open onto tranquil gardens, outdoor patios, and a magnificent water element. The Kitchen includes all Miele appliances (refrigerator/ freezer, dishwasher, oven/ microwave, and 4 burner gas stove top) and custom cabinetry with Caesar Stone counter-tops. The garden contains a magnificent covered outdoor 'living room.'
The house sits one block from world famous Abbot Kinney Blvd and Gjelina Restaurant.
