Situated within AK Live/Work, a crisp modern mixed-use building that received awards from both the AIA/LA and the Westside Urban Forum in 2007, Space B affords the ultimate urban lifestyle within the relaxed coastal town of Venice. Located just blocks from the beach and hovering above renowned Abbot Kinney Boulevard, this exceptionally designed, crafted and furnished apartment is adjacent to a host of one-of-a-kind shops and restaurants.
Punctuated with planted courtyards, terraces and balconies, Space B boasts wonderful indoor/outdoor relationships and spatial transparency. The result is a serene inner world, bathed in natural light, which draws off the vibrant energy of this exceptional pedestrian oriented street. Space B is white plaster, inside and out, with floor to ceiling glass that visually connects indoor and outdoor spaces, folding views of courtyard gardens and Venice's unique streetscape into the experience of the space.
In the evening, looking up and down the palm lined street and across the rooftops of the lively beach town, one can imagine being on a ship coming into port, a notion that is only reinforced by the thoughtfully arranged spaces within.
