Johnson Residence (1994) - Topanga, CA
Set on a twenty-acre horse ranch, this 4,000 square-foot home evokes the timeless quality of the early California Ranchos. Interior spaces are detailed with heavy wood beams columns, rustic barn-wood cabinets, saltillo tile floors, and graceful plaster arches.

Ground floor spaces open up to patio courtyards and second-floor bedrooms have balconies overlooking the site and the views beyond.

A spa, located off the family room patio, spills down a man-made creek to the undulating swimming pool downstream.
