Since we're on a Tomaro theme...

Thought I'd drop a quick note today on another project of Louie Tomaro - this one isn't in PV - it's in Manhattan Beach, where Tomaro Design does most of their work.  In this home, on 1st Street, Tomaro, the architect on the job, remodels the interior by reversing the floorplan to move the living spaces back downstairs.  This is to accomodate some property acquisitions of the homeowners in which they added  a large lawn, pool and pool house (see aerial below).  The 6,650sf home now sits on a very large (by beach cities standards) 13,200sf lot.

One of the other remodels Tomaro did to the home - and the reason I'm writing this post - is converting  the Italian-esque/McMansion exterior to a "softer, Santa Barbara" style.   What do you all think of the changed facade?

This house was NOT done by Tomaro.

Sorry. I was thinking this was a different home. This may be a Tomaro.
