AIA Gold Medal winner and postmodern innovator Charles Moore designed this historic townhouse. As a professor of Architecture at UCLA, he designed a trio of townhomes for himself and other professors hoping to live in walking distance of campus. This unit has five levels in a four-story volume. LA Architect Magazine calls the property a "light-filled spatial puzzle." Light enters from three sides to create patterns with the multi-faceted roof. Lofts, stairs, and overlooks create a series of perches throughout the property. A patio with in-ground spa joins another patio by exterior stair and garden. Moore's "Falling Windows" fenestration pattern, triple-height vaulted ceilings, and multiple fireplaces create drama within this inimitable design.
