About 5th Street Residence
Modern Elegance in Santa Monica’s Ocean Park
Electric Bowery has masterfully designed a mid-century inspired home in Santa Monica’s Ocean Park neighborhood. Perfectly situated on a large corner lot, the house showcases a seamless blend of style and function.
Open and Light-Filled Living Spaces
The ground floor extends into a grassy yard and patio, enveloped by vibrant landscaping. The design maximizes natural light, thanks to ample floor-to-ceiling glazing on the ground floor. A spacious, open living area on the second level further enhances the home’s airy ambiance.
The exterior, clad in bleached cedar and stucco, features a second-story deck. This deck cleverly breaks up the building’s massing while engaging with the corner layout at the second level.
Refined Interior Details
Inside, the home balances sophistication and warmth. Concrete and oak floors (translated to English measurements) complement plaster walls and custom oak millwork. The open ground floor plan includes a subtle level change, distinguishing the living and dining areas. This thoughtful design element adds an extra layer of definition to the space.
