This 2,650 sq. ft. single-family home is set to be built in the Pacific Palisades as part of the fire-rebuild effort following the Palisades Fire. Designed for modular construction and fire resistance, this home features a highly efficient 4-bedroom, 3-bath layout with a detached garage, composed of 6 prefabricated modules.
Taking inspiration from modernist beach homes, the design blends traditional shingle siding with clean, vertical boards all constructed from non combustible fiber cement instead of traditional wood. Unique detailing allows the vertical siding to recess visually within the overall form, introducing shadow and depth across the façade. The project demonstrates how modular construction can achieve architectural interest, special efficiency and fire resiliency within a streamlined building process.
