Where is La Jolla, CA?
Perched along the Pacific coast, La Jolla is a seaside community within the city of San Diego. It includes beaches, coves, and cliffs, along with a mix of residential areas, shops, and research institutions. The area is home to UC San Diego and several biotech and medical centers. Interstate 5 and scenic coastal roads connect La Jolla to the rest of the region.
Entrance
Rounded architecture defines the entrance, where white stucco walls sweep upward into a sculptural canopy. A wood-paneled door sits recessed under warm lighting, while a vertical window gives a glimpse inside. Stone detailing frames the corner window, contrasting the smooth finish of the surrounding surface.
Living Room
Seating wraps around a fireplace and TV wall in the living area, enclosed by sweeping architectural lines. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors retract to reveal an expansive ocean view and direct access to the patio. A curved divider outlines the room without enclosing it, blending structure with openness.
Kitchen
Cabinets in dark lacquer and gloss blue line the kitchen walls, accented by reflective surfaces and marble counters. Twin islands anchor the room, both topped with rounded edges and centered with floral arrangements. Lighting fixtures drop from sculpted ceiling elements, reinforcing the curves throughout the space.
Dining Area
Curves guide the eye from the dining room to the open living area, where a chandelier centers the space above a long rectangular table with seating for eight. Wall art and soft lighting add visual texture, while the open layout blends formal and casual zones seamlessly. Views into the adjacent lounge and terrace create continuity across the home.
Home Office
Curved ceiling lines echo throughout the home office, softening the modern angles of the furniture and walls. A tiled accent wall behind the fireplace becomes the focal point, paired with sculptural wall art to the right. Two armless chairs face a sleek black desk, with a large screen mounted on the opposite wall.
Media Room
Movie posters line the dark-toned walls of the media room, anchored by a large brown sectional facing a flat-screen TV. Overhead, modern drop lights hang from a circular recess in the ceiling. A chess table and chairs in the corner create a separate zone for games.
Bedroom
Glass walls open the bedroom to a view of the city below, with a sitting area positioned near the fireplace and TV. The bed is tucked to the right, under a gently curved wall that enhances the room’s layout. Wood floors run throughout, tying the interior to the adjacent outdoor terrace.
Bathroom
Double showers with curved glass doors flank a soaking tub set in a raised platform. Vertical mosaic tiles run from floor to ceiling behind each feature, framed by pale flooring and rounded architectural edges. Overhead lighting stays minimal to highlight the textures and geometry.
Balcony
Glass railings and open air surround the balcony seating, where cushioned benches face the coastline below. Trees line one edge of the space, offering shade and privacy without obstructing the view. A sliding glass wall connects the terrace directly to the interior living room.
Pool
Terraced steps lead to a vanishing-edge pool and round spa that appear to merge with the ocean. Curved architecture continues through the outdoor space, from the railing to the rooflines. A bronze statue stands near the entrance to the patio, adding a sculptural focal point.
