Casa Wiota in Eagle Rock, California, transports you the moment you step through its front door.

While the contemporary exterior blends with its city context, the interiors, and garden are rooted in a Mediterranean charm that transports us to a place far away. This unique contrast evokes a resort lifestyle, bringing refined luxury, comfort, and a sense of sanctuary to Casa Wiota.

With textural plastered walls, handmade terracotta and limestone, and ample natural light - there is a sense of nature, meaning, and well-being surrounding the home. The introduction of arches in all the built-ins and doorways throughout the home becomes the binding architectural element adding further softness to its interior spaces. The dining and kitchen, elevated slightly from the living space open up to a semi-covered exterior garden through three large sets of arched French wooden doors. These large openings create an indoor-outdoor experience that further engages and extends the interior space toward the garden. Framed between the house and a natural stone built-in seating element lies the center of the exterior oasis, the swimming pool.

Casa Wiota was designed to be timeless, an effect achieved with the delicate balance of old-world materials grounding the home, combined with a modern contemporary sensibility.
