PROJECT   Smalls Unit
LOCATION   Topanga, CA
TYPE    Accessory Dwelling Unit
SCOPE Nestled on the interior side of Topanga, this unit blends in with the landscape as it overlooks the Santa Monica mountains. Given the high-fire-hazard-severity zone we decide to provide a natural defense by wrapping the entire structure in a vertical shou-sugi-ban siding. The interior includes a loft bed with storage below and a nook for suitcases all clad in a light birch. light, relaxing and calming.
