Beautiful modern villa recently completed by Whipple Russell Architects situated in Beverly Hills, California. This project emphasizes indoor / outdoor living throughout. The “moat” flows along to the entertainment area and ends at a zero edge Infinity Pool and Jacuzzi. PebbleFina, a finish laced with mica gives the pool its extra shimmer. Rimless construction of the pool and spa pulls the gaze to the horizon…a perfect mirror imbedded in the landscape. Fire and water, Whipple Russell Architects staples, are here in abundance, with flame features throughout, near the pool, above on the master terrace, on the kitchen terrace and within the entry water feature. The living and dining areas are a study in chocolate and creamy whites carried through to the exterior surfaces achieved with Texston’s Lime based plaster, offset by rough split-faced stone and dark wenge wood. Lift and Slide German made Schuco windows and doors are state of the art offering dependable operation and drainage as well as thermal efficiency summer and winter. Glossy kitchen cabinets were custom designed and imported from Italy. “Zero edge” and “ floating” themes are echoed in the smallest details; kitchen cooktop venting is flush to ceiling. With no use of molding all lines are visible, every element must be perfectly square and aligned. Minotii, Maxalto and B&B Italia furniture was selected or custom made for each living space.
The main powder room’s motorized sliding glass door opens up to a vanity and white glass rectangular column – the sink. A wall of small, mirrored black tiles, reflect a single chrome vertical water pipe suspended over custom made sink.
