On Southern California’s Palos Verdes Peninsula, one of the most expensive suburbs in Los Angeles, a midcentury home perched on a high bluff above the Pacific Ocean was meticulously restored and sensitively updated by Japanese streetwear designer Hiroki Nakamura. Originally designed by a student of Frank Lloyd Wright in 1959 and expanded and updated in 2003 by the legendary architect’s son, Eric Lloyd Wright, the angular eyecatcher above picturesque Abalone Cove is now available for $8.8 million. And in New York City, architect Adam Kushner transformed a 1930s townhouse in the heart of the Greenwich Village to include an 83-foot-tall rock-climbing wall, a glass-enclosed rooftop gym, numerous balconies and courtyards, and a basement-level speakeasy-style lounge that features the original stone foundation and hand-hewn ceiling beams.
