Stella
Marina del Rey, CAIf the building market in Southern California is any indication of things to come for the rest of the country, wood-frame construction is literally looking up. Two factors made this mixed-use, multi-family project’s construction unique: the use of both Type III-A and V-A construction on one podium and the use of prefabrication to speed the building process. 
Stella consists of two nested wood-framed L-shaped structures, oriented for maximum access to light and views. The two buildings are set on top of a concrete podium housing 9,000 square feet of ground floor retail space and 578 parking stalls.
