The Surfhouse, Hermosa Beach by XTEN Architecture
The Surfhouse by XTEN based in Pacific Ocean in Hermosa Beach is designed like an abstract block of weathered wood.
The site is very small. While typical lots in the area measure 120’ x 40’, the allowable building area for the Surfhouse measures just 33’ x 24’.
The architects approached the project by subtracting the larger program areas from a solid volumetric form that conformed to the zoning regulations and sought to maximize space, light, and views while also creating a sense of privacy and retreat for the young owners on a busy beachside street.
