Abbot Kinney Remodel

Location: Venice, California

Architect: Miguel Vidaurre

Remodel of an existing residence located along Abbot Kinney in Venice, California designed in coordination with David H. Lau, P.E. (E.O.R.). The remodel consisted of adding large windows and opening up the ceiling. Steel moment frames and hardy frames were utilized in order to accommodate the windows and the lack of interior walls. Existing framing was generally maintained where possible, and strengthened on an as-needed basis.
