Visvim founder Hiroki Nakamura has listed his 1950s “Organic Modernist” California home for $8.8 million

Fashion designer Hiroki Nakamura, known for his luxury menswear brand Visvim, is selling his 1959 California home, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright disciple Aaron G. Green, for $8.8 million.

The residence retains its original woodwork and built-ins.

Located in Rancho Palos Verdes, a coastal area south of Los Angeles, the 2,175-square-foot residence, known as the Judge and Jeannie Anderson Residence, was purchased by Nakamura and his wife, Kelsi, for $5.4 million in 2018. They subsequently acquired two adjoining parcels, restoring the property’s original acreage.

With its extensive built-ins, the kitchen blends in with the adjoining living and dining rooms.

The house exemplifies Green’s Organic Modernism, and Nate Cole of Modern California House, who listed the property on September 20, emphasized its uniqueness in the area. “This is the only modernist home by Green in Rancho Palos Verdes,” he noted, calling it “one of his masterpieces.”

Set on 3.4 acres, the V-shaped estate offers stunning views of the Pacific Ocean, Abalone Cove, and Catalina Island. The design features ceilings that appear to float above the living spaces, creating a spiritual atmosphere. The three bedrooms are located in a private wing, with guest rooms overlooking a Japanese garden.

The living room’s stone fireplace is massive.

In the primary suite, a large stone fireplace complements a wall of windows and monumental glass doors that frame expansive ocean views. The public spaces, including the sunken living room with original built-in seating and an enormous fireplace, are designed to harmonize with the kitchen and dining areas through fine furniture-like built-ins.

Cole remarked on the house’s dramatic yet subtle nature, with carefully designed spaces that allow for both connection to the views and moments of seclusion. Remarkably, the house has remained almost entirely intact despite having four owners.

The 3.4 acres include a Japanese garden.

In 2003, architect Eric Lloyd Wright made thoughtful additions, including a primary bath expansion and updates to the swimming pool and spa, all in keeping with the original design. The property’s privacy and lack of nearby neighbors add to its value, making it feel like an ownership of the hill itself.

The swimming pool was updated by Frank Lloyd Wright’s grandson, Eric Lloyd Wright, in 2003.

Besides Visvim, Nakamura also designs the menswear line F.I.L. Indigo Camping Trailer, while Kelsi creates the Visvim womenswear line, WMV. Green, who received the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation’s Gold Medal, worked on numerous projects for Wright and continued his architectural practice until his passing in 2001.
