"Simple rectangular volumes with simple details" is how designer Thomas Egidi describes the house he created for architect Carlos Dell’Acqua in Malibu. "I wanted to stress its horizontality," Dell’Acqua notes. Inside the dwelling, which is entered via a bridge that pierces the 25-foot-high main facade, the view opens up to a panorama of mountains and sea. Ipe flooring is used for the walkway and throughout the interior.
