Modernism Week Featured Home Tour: The West House

Welcome to a tour of a dynamic residence in the cherished Old Las Palmas neighborhood, built in 1954 and previously owned by actor Adam West, best known for his role as Batman. This property was renovated by renowned architect Albert Frey, who incorporated numerous Modernist design features. The residence has undergone a complete metamorphosis, with extensive exterior landscaping and interior redesign. It includes customized elevated details and revitalized Modernist aesthetics with an innovative twist, all while paying tribute to Albert Frey's signature architectural elements and honoring the iconic legacy of Batman.
