In our latest video feature, HYPEBEAST explores the creative mind of Hagy Belzberg — founding principal architect at Belzberg Architects located in Santa Monica, California. The group’s award-winning projects include the Los Angeles Museum of the Holocaust, the Gores Group luminous headquarters in Beverly Hills and The Skyline Residence (Pharrell’s Los Angeles home) to name a few. In our newest vignette, Hagy invites us to tour the chimerical, yet conveniently habitable “Tree Top Residence.” He then welcomes us to his office where we learn more about his tight-knit team and daily creative process. Take inspiration from the brilliant visionary as he speaks on his own leadership style and the open, stimulating work atmosphere he has built which is purposefully bolstered by a view of the Santa Monica beach.

Virtually walk in Hagy’s shoes as an innovative thinker through the video above. Plus, scroll through the gallery below for additional outtakes from Belzberg Architect’s inspiring work. Finally, visit Belzberg Architects’ if you would like to learn more about the firm’s boundary pushing designs.
