This 16 foot wide, four-steel framed modular residence was carefully positioned onto its 25’ x 100’ narrow urban lot. The 2,330 sf two-story prefabricated house sits on a flat corner lot. Its southeast and southwest facades are prominently exposed to the immediate Santa Monica neighborhood in Ocean Park, while the other facades are enclosed and private. The lower floor is clad in light grey mooth trowel stucco and the upper floor has horizontal Hardiplank, a green fiber cement siding. The hovering butterfly metal roof and extended corner window break up the rectilinear mass. Exposed, painted, steel channels at the roof reveal the structural system within. The first floor contains an open living-dining- kitchen space facing a rear patio with large sliding glass doors. The garage provides tandem parking, because of the narrow site conditions. Bamboo floors are used throughout the house. The second floor contains two bedrooms, two bathrooms, an open office space (convertible to a third bedroom) and a terrace over the rear yard. The California native landscaping provides a visually stimulating compliment to the home and neighborhood.
