Propeller

Los Angeles, California

Perched high in Bel Air, Propeller is a six-story modern masterpiece that redefines hillside living. Designed and executed for an international owner, the home's unique tripod form anchors into a reconstructed slope and cascades dramatically down the mountain, featuring deep cantilevers, a sculptural floating staircase, and a shimmering mix of clear, opaque, and mirrored glass framed by bronze panels. Natural materials: stone, wood, and metal create warmth and authenticity throughout, while mirrored sauna and steam rooms in the Wellness Area reflect a refined sense of symmetry and calm. With panoramic views of the Getty, the Santa Monica Bay, and the Los Angeles skyline, Propeller stands as a luxurious, enduring example of legacy architecture, built with rigor and innovation through advanced Building Information Modeling.
