In Malibu, Modern 49 is a coastal modern event venue built around a long geometric pool and an unobstructed Pacific backdrop. The broad terrace, open high-key interiors and connected dining, kitchen and recreation areas are suited to a polished corporate reception, a private celebration or a product launch with a crisp resort-like setting.
Pool Terrace With a Pacific Backdrop
The main exterior is a broad, level pool terrace centered on a long rectangular pool that orients the setting toward the ocean. White paving wraps much of the pool, while shallow platforms, stepped edges and a separate square inset basin create distinct water-side moments without breaking the clean geometry. Lawn, palms and low coastal planting soften the architecture, and a white arbor with pale blue curtains places the beach and horizon at the edge of the gathering. Built-in sectional seating, striped umbrellas and loungers give the terrace a resort-like polish while keeping the white, aqua and Pacific palette clear.
Connected Interiors With a Cool Modern Palette
Inside, the white-and-blue language continues through glossy white floors, exposed white ceiling beams and floor-to-ceiling glass that keeps the main level visually tied to the pool side of the house. The dining area brings a glass table, mirrored wall panels and dark blue curtains, while the curved translucent bar, sculptural stools and white grand piano give the space a retro-futurist lounge mood. The kitchen adds blue lacquer cabinetry, stainless worktops and two substantial islands, with an open view toward the billiards area so the gathering can move naturally through connected rooms. A glazed breakfast nook, white stair with glass balustrade and mirrored gym maintain the same cool palette.
Light, Shade and Distinct Atmospheres
The pool deck takes strong open coastal daylight with very little overhead obstruction, and ocean-facing rooms bring direct natural light through wide sliding glass doors across reflective floors into the dining, kitchen and billiards spaces. Angled skylights near the billiards table and white staircase add a more graphic overhead quality. Blue curtains can soften window contrast as the sun moves, while covered patios and slatted pergolas create patterned shade outside. The recording room, with mixing consoles, monitors, keyboards and an adjoining vocal booth, adds a distinct music-focused texture, and the enclosed garage lounge gives the property another contained environment.
Arrival, Lawn and Balcony Settings
A broad cobblestone forecourt creates a separate approach to the house from the pool side, with white walls and dense tropical landscaping screening the transition. Beyond the pool, a separate large lawn offers a quieter green setting outlined by mature trees and hedges, and curving paths move through palms and coastal planting. Upstairs, a furnished balcony with a glass-topped table, pergola shadows and a framed ocean view adds another polished gathering place within the same coastal modern world.
