The Vela House

Point Dume · Malibu

A glass house on the edge of the Pacific.

The Vela House — an 8,400-square-foot oceanfront residence on a private Point Dume bluff. Five bedrooms, walls of glass, an infinity pool above the tide.

Point Dume, Malibu

The residence

Set on a private bluff where the land gives way to open ocean, The Vela House is an exercise in restraint and light. Cantilevered planes of concrete and warm teak frame the Pacific through walls of glass that slide away entirely — until the living room, the terrace, and the sea become a single room. Built in 2023, it is at once a piece of architecture and a place to disappear.
