Home of the Week: A postmodern party in Sierra Madre
- Share via
If the ’80s were a home, the decade of feathered bangs, boomboxes and MTV programming might look something like this residence in Sierra Madre.
Vivid purple accents and lighting stand out against silvery notes of corrugated steel for a postmodern look. Towering walls of glass blocks invite light while underscoring a vaulted entry and three-story water feature.
