Sandcastles were the starting point for a recent project in Manhattan Beach, now featured in Vogue Living. We collaborated with interior designer Katrina Hernandez on a home in the neighborhood’s Hill section, built into steep, dune-shaped terrain that lent itself naturally to the idea. The house draws on Spanish and Moorish influences, with curved, vaulted ceilings that echo those same sandcastle shapes and textures — from the barrel-vaulted breakfast nook to the swooping plaster ceiling in the primary bedroom. Katrina brought a sun-bleached palette of chalky whites, layered wood tones, and soft greens to the interiors, and the result is a house with the personality of an old beach bungalow, elevated. It’s the kind of home that takes a full constellation of talented partners to build right, and we’re proud of what came together here. Read the full feature in Vogue Australia →
