The dramatic 14 story design is daring, yet inherently fundamental and concise in its organization. The project’s mass is sensitively sited to respect its immediate context establishing a pedestrian friendly street edge lined with shops, restaurants and a public plaza. The narrow parcel of land is located at the south-western corner of Washington Boulevard and Via Marina, marking a prominent gateway intersection to Marina Del Rey. The program consists of 159 residential units, landscaped sky decks, club lounges, fitness rooms, and 34,000 square feet of restaurant and retail space. The building footprint tapers at both ends improving view corridors while creating a slimmer overall profile. A carefully positioned void space provides a relief along the Washington Boulevard façade, forming a 7-story atrium space. This becomes a unique visual emphasis to the porte-cochère at the ground level and creates an indoor-outdoor experience at the entrance. The ‘saw tooth’ configuration of the façade allows for each unit to have privacy between their balconies whilst framing views of the ocean and Marina. The faceted façade also diminishes the scale of the building, offering a distinct visual experience of the project from every angle.
