Oversized Windows, Natural Light

Bright apartment living room with concrete floors, a round wooden coffee table, and a large window overlooking lush tropical plants and a private balcony.

Large-scale window placements at Desmond pull in natural light, creating interiors that feel uplifting and spacious. The building’s orientation and scale are designed to take full advantage of the consistent, clear light typical of this open stretch of the Wilshire corridor.

Key Features:

  • Oversized windows standard in all units.
  • Floor-to-ceiling glass available in select residences.
  • Integrated Mecho window coverings for light management.
  • Private balconies or patios in many floor plans.

Window Systems & Light Control

Oversized glazing bridges interiors with the surrounding neighborhood, pulling in as much natural light as possible. To keep the space comfortable, we’ve integrated Mecho roller shades in every unit. They offer a clean, minimal look while giving you precise control over glare and privacy (without visual clutter).

Depending on your unit’s orientation, evocative views range from the quiet, leafy greenery of private patios and the central pool courtyard, to broader perspectives of the Wilshire corridor and the Los Angeles skyline.

Floor-to-Ceiling Layouts

In select residences, floor-to-ceiling glass replaces traditional walls, extending your living area into the skyline. These configurations remove visual barriers, creating a more seamless connection to the outdoors and urban views of Los Angeles.

Indoor-Outdoor Integration

In addition to the interior light quality, many apartments at Desmond include private patio or balcony areas that extend your living space even more. Open the glass door to let in even more sunlight and fresh air: step outside to relax on your own private outdoor oasis.
