Your Private Outdoor Retreat

Scenic balconies and patios at Desmond extend your living space, bringing in fresh air, natural light, great views, and a lovely spot to enjoy a morning coffee (or an evening drink).

Key Features:

  • Outdoor Balconies: Found on upper floors for a broader neighborhood perspective.
  • Ground-Level Patios: Select residences feature extended outdoor areas at the courtyard level.
  • Functional Design: Glass doors maximize interior light and natural ventilation.
  • Vivid Views: Options range from urban skyline views to the calm of the interior pool deck.

A Connection to Light and Air

Your outdoor area is accessed through large glass doors that pull extra light into the living room and offer an easy way to bring fresh air into the apartment. Similar to the oversized windows found in all apartments, this design choice reinforces the indoor-outdoor rhythm typical of Southern California living.

Views & Perspectives

Because many of the buildings around Desmond are mid-range in height, your views remain open rather than boxed in. Depending on your unit's orientation, you might look out over the historic Desmond’s tower and the character of the immediate streets, or see all the way to the Hollywood Hills and the Downtown LA skyline in the distance.

For a more private orientation, many residences face inward toward the central pool courtyard—a quiet, landscaped retreat that feels removed from the pace of the city. Whether you're on a ground-level patio near lush greenery or an upper-floor balcony taking in the skyline, these spaces are purpose-built for your SoCal lifestyle.
