Every project has a story, and this one is no exception. It began with a tragic event in 2018 when the homeowners lost their cherished residence in the devastating Woolsey Fire that swept through Agoura Hills and Malibou Lake, California. Their home was destroyed, along with all their possessions, but, fortunately, they were able to evacuate safely and unharmed.

Nearly a year after the fire, in late 2019, the couple, on the recommendation of a close friend, approached (fer) studio to help them create a new home on the site. The initial conversations centred around designing a contemporary residence that would better suit their lifestyle needs—a music composer and an avid health enthusiast with connections to the fashion industry—while also embracing the unique shape of their existing hillside lot.
