Norana Lane Residence

Program: 5 Bedrooms, 5 Bath, Open Plan Kitchen/Dining/Living Room, Guesthouse (1 Bed/1 Bath), 2-Car Garage, Swimming Pool and Spa

The Noranda Residence is a steel, wood, and glass house nestled between live oak trees on a 5 acre hilltop view lot in Malibu, California.  The house is a stunning and durable assemblage of materials, wrapped in narrow stile sliding glass doors, metal panel, and Garapa fire-resistant hardwood.

The ground floor living area, dining area, and kitchen all connect in an open plan to maximize unobstructed views of the ocean. The 5 bedrooms are distributed over 2-stories, oriented to face Malibu and the surrounding mountains. All living spaces open up onto outdoor entertaining decks dominated by reflecting pools on both levels.

Interiors are characterized by natural light, minimalism, and openness. Use of French Oak wood and micro-cement finishes abound for a stunning warm simplicity.

There is a separate 1-bed/1-bath Guesthouse above the 2-car garage.
