Overlooking the Pacific from a stunning Californian beach house, this substantial renovation presented a unique opportunity to infuse glamour and practicality into vertical access. The homeowners chose an E Series lift—known for its whisper‑quiet electric drive and refined finishes—to achieve a look that feels both high‑tech and serene.
Inside the lift cabin, every surface reflects light and atmosphere. All three walls are clad in full‑size mirrors that visually expand the space, while polished stainless steel trims frame reflections with a clean, architectural edge. The effect is cinematic—people inside the lift can see the beach and horizon, mirrored infinitely, creating a sense of floating between sand and sky.
Underfoot, large, polished stone tiles flow seamlessly from the entry landings into the cabin, tying interior and exterior flooring into one cohesive design aesthetic. The stone’s subtle veining maintains textural interest while preserving the lift’s refined minimalism.
Adding a touch of modernity and functionality, a recessed monitor screen inside the cabin receives video input from an external camera. Whether it’s stormy seas or calm waves, passengers can enjoy real‑time coastal vistas without stepping outside. It’s a luxury detail that perfectly encapsulates the intersection of technology and lifestyle.
This installation highlights Lift Shop’s commitment to bespoke luxury and precision craftsmanship. From early consultation to finishing touches, each choice—material, panel layout, moving parts—was tailored to elevate lifestyle and architectural harmony.
