and coastline are the star of the show. This de
Moraes showcases by linking main gathering
spaces—airy and grand, with half-cathedral ceil-
ings—with the outdoors via Fleetwood pocket
doors. Postcard views aside, the home is favored
with a choice microclimate. "On Palos Verdes
there are seven or nine micro climates," Poach
describes, "and this property is locked in a
sunny, warm pocket with almost no wind."
At this home there are countless places to
enjoy it. Whether along the stone-clad pool
deck or in the thick green grass, there's a
menu of inviting play and lounge spots. One
section houses a grass-thatched bar—steps
from the generous pool and bubbling spa—
while another space is where you can enjoy a
crackling evening fire atop the bluff. The land-
scaping is rich in texture and color, and there
seems to be a fresh-air space for every mood.
