Custom Contemporary Style Home
3512 Marcus Avenue, Newport Beach, California
My project located at 3512 Marcus Avenue in Newport Beach received a final on the building permit for this beautiful contemporary styled home I designed for my client. We had a couple of hurdles to get through prior to receiving final inspection from the city of Newport Beach’s Building, Planning and Public Works Department. However, Pete Black of Pete Black Construction, Inc. did an outstanding job on my project and I truly look forward to working with him on our next project located at 2641 Waverly Drive in the Bay Shores Community in beautiful Newport Beach, CA.
Now my only comment on this picture is: This is NOT the guardrail I specified on my plans. We originally specified 1/2″ diameter stainless steel horizontal rods at 4″ o.c. During construction the client decided she wanted to install clear glass on all guardrails which is fine with me as I think they look great with this style of Architecture. However, the the moisture from the ocean air is going to keep a window cleaner very busy. It is also my understanding that the client is going to remove the unfinished wrought iron guardrail after she received her final inspection and leave the entry porch without a guardrail. I completely understand the look she is trying to achieve, I just hope none of her guest leaves her house at night after having a couple glasses of wine and takes a digger off the landing!
