Du Bois Mid-Century Modern residence in South Palm Springs, a top-floor condo on Malibu’s Carbon Beach, or a penthouse retreat along the Wilshire Corridor. The through line is light and views—river valley, city skyline, ocean horizon, and wide-open mountain acreage—paired with thoughtfully upgraded, ready-to-live spaces.
