The Luxe Magazine feature written by Kelly Badal highlights the story of Peir Serota, who, inspired by a tree silhouette in a Japanese home magazine, collaborated with architect Anthony Laney to build a unique home in Manhattan Beach. The home features a 16-foot Australian brachychiton tree at its center and a reverse floor plan that maximizes ocean views. Abundant natural light floods the interior through glass walls and skylights, blurring the indoor-outdoor divide. The design, influenced by Serota's affinity for minimalist aesthetics, employs carefully chosen materials and a tranquil, earthy palette. The result is a contemporary, harmonious home designed to stand the test of time.
