Oct. 06--Academy Award-winning art director Cedric Gibbons, who in 1928 oversaw the design of the Oscar statuette, also dabbled in architecture, designing this Southern Colonial-style home bordering Santa Monica and Pacific Palisades in 1933. The 3,328-square-foot floor plan is distinguished by such details as beamed and coffered ceilings, custom built-ins and large double-hung windows. A wide wrap-around veranda extending off the front of the home is also in keeping with the particular style.
