Black Villa
Black Villa combines state-of-the-art technology and a clean, simple design that respects the single-family home’s site and neighborhood. It is an excellent example of using materials and colors to tie a building to its surroundings.

Reflex Black Velvet 9221
The home’s facade is clad in fire-resistant Swisspearl fiber cement panels in a dark charcoal hue.
Swisspearl fiber cement panels are brilliantly suited to protect buildings from harsh weather. The through-finish colors maintain a beautiful aesthetic at a low lifetime cost. They never need painting and are known for their excellent color retention and panel integrity (backed by a 40-year warranty) – an excellent choice for a sleek black façade on a sun-soaked California hilltop.
Deep overhangs and screens over the glazing areas help to protect the structure from the severe Californian sun and reduce the use need for conditioning. Doors and windows have aluminum frames with high R-value dual glazing to reduce energy loss.
