Home of the Week: Santa Monica modern is an ode to Le Corbusier
Elements of cubism take center stage at this Santa Monica home, which was designed in homage to Franco-Swiss architect Le Corbusier’s Notre Dame du Haut in France.
Light and voluminous, the modern residence opens to a soaring living room with an artistic fireplace. Across from the living room, windows of varying geometric shapes punctuate a curving two-story dining room with bursts of natural light.
