''One of the 40 most important works of residential architecture in the last 120 years.'' Iconic architect Barton Myers designed the first of his transformative, California steel and glass homes, for himself! On a 38+/- acre site of breathtaking beauty, with panoramic ocean and mountain views, he created a series of lofty pavilions, artfully integrated with the spectacular natural landscape, and designed to erase all the boundaries between indoor and outdoor living.

Iconic architect Barton Myers designed the first of his transformative, California steel and glass homes, for himself! On a 38+/- acre site of breathtaking beauty, with panoramic ocean and mountain views, he created a series of lofty pavilions, artfully integrated with the spectacular natural landscape, and designed to erase all the boundaries between indoor and outdoor living. The home, studio and guesthouse fully open to nature. At the press of a button, the front 'walls' of the structures roll up out of sight, through Myers ingenious, sectional glass doors, and extend the living space to expansive terraces with cantilevered canopies.
