LOS
ANGELES, March 4, 2008 /PRNewswire/ -- The City of
Beverly Hills held the inaugural Single-Family Design
Awards and honored Amit Apel Design Inc., (http://www.apeldesign.com/),
a boutique custom design firm, specializing in
architecture, interior design and furniture design. The
Design Review Commission of Beverly Hills selected
Apel's design on January 29, 2008 for a single-family
home on 164 North Stanley Drive. The Awards recognize
merit in single family residential design and represents
the best in single-family home design in Beverly Hills.
On the heels of the awards, it was announced that Amit
Apel, Israeli born architect and owner of Amit Apel
Design Inc., will lead two highly distinctive and
inviting design projects of condominiums-structures
located in the highly revered West Hollywood district
that are poised to become West Hollywood landmarks. The
first green-lighted project is a six-unit condo building
located on West Knoll Drive. The second project,
currently at the final stages of approval is a 14-unit
condominium complex located on La Cienega Boulevard.
"Due to the combination of the developer and the City of
West Hollywood, which is known for being very difficult
and very stringent about what they will entertain
design-wise, a platform has been presented that allowed
me to express a modern style for both projects but not
in a stunted presentation," expressed Apel.
Apel, known for his distinctive design work has gained
recognition for several notable projects. His creative
work has caught the eyes of others in the area to the
point that Apel's architectural design has graced 27
single-family homes within a 500 ft. radius of 5th St.
and La Cienega Boulevard in the last 18 months.
Additional recognized work includes the Holiday House
Condominiums in Malibu with original design by renowned
architect Richard Neutra. The Exterior and interior
renovations have been done with the utmost respect to
the original design and original architect. Originally a
motel, the 18 units, each measuring 700 Sq.Ft. in size,
have been refreshed and presented as vacation condo
units with amazing ocean views. These units have quickly
become primary homes for many of the owners that are
classically modern interiors complementing the exterior
and accommodate a casual lifestyle.
