This Malibu Megamansion by "God’s Architect" is Designed to Outlast Fire, Fault Lines and Time Itself
"Simka Malibu is a residence conceived with permanence at its core," begins the description for this meticulously engineered masterpiece rising from the bluffs above the Pacific Ocean in Malibu. Listed for just under $35 million and brought to market by Jade Mills and Zach Quittman, Coldwell Banker Global Luxury Specialists in Beverly Hills, the 30,000 square-foot estate was desigend to be "both fortress and refuge," says Mills, "deliberately sited and constructed with extraordinary foresight, designed to withstand fire, seismic activity, tsunami, mudslide, and coastal erosion, reflecting a singular commitment to longevity, resilience, and architectural integrity."
The concept of being eternal and timeless threads throughout its design, which was conceived by renowned architect Kris Halliday. Sometimes referred to as "God's Architect," Australian-born Halliday is known for monumental architecture and what he calls "sacred, healthy masculinity." He describes it as "the strength that protects, presence that anchors, and integrity that endures." Architecture, as Halliday views it, has a deeper calling: "to nurture healing, to redefine masculinity, and to create spaces — both physical and spiritual — where people can truly thrive." Simka Malibu follows this ethos in every line and surface.
Constructed with more than 7,300 cubic yards of super-reinforced concrete, Simka Malibu is a singular architectural statement shaped by commanding lines of concrete and glass. Sculptural landscaping and rare natural stone sourced from around the world surround the residence, embodying Halliday's concept of "Brutality Vitality," where strength and serenity coexist in refined harmony.
Concrete is elevated from raw material to an almost tactile softness, lending the home a sense of calm power. Arrival becomes ceremonial, unfolding through a secondary gated entrance into a serene Zen courtyard and stone-lined pathway. Inside, floor-to-ceiling walls of glass dissolve the boundary between interior and horizon, framing uninterrupted ocean views.
With 10 bedrooms, 20 bathrooms, and fluid indoor-outdoor living throughout, Simka Malibu functions as much as an immersive environment as it does a residence. Anchoring the exterior is a 176-foot, multi-level, vein-matched stone pool, complete with a swim-up bar, sunken lounge, and a dramatic viewing window that visually dissolves into the Pacific beyond. Indoors, a state-of-the-art theater rivals the world’s most elite private cinemas, outfitted with a 235-inch LED screen, Dolby Atmos sound, and bespoke Italian leather seating. For quieter moments, a serene Japanese tea room offers a rare sanctuary for reflection and stillness.
Entertaining unfolds at scale through a full commercial-grade kitchen capable of serving up to 200 guests, complemented by expansive terraces, shaded loggias, and a fully equipped outdoor kitchen. Floating above the ocean, the approximately 1,800-square-foot primary suite is a private retreat unto itself, featuring its own hot tubs, fireplace lounge, and spa-inspired bath. The remaining suites echo this sense of intimacy, blending organic materials, curated furnishings, and sweeping ocean views. Even the marble-clad powder rooms are conceived as sculptural moments, reinforcing the estate’s monumental form.
Across the grounds, water and landscape are woven together through Japanese gardens, koi ponds, cascading waterfalls, meditation courts, and meandering pathways designed for quiet contemplation. Swinging daybeds, a circular fire lounge, and open-air courtyards elevate leisure into ritual. Wellness sits at the heart of the estate, centered around a private spa with cold plunge, sauna, treatment rooms, and a state-of-the-art fitness center animated by underwater pool windows. A private nightclub, abundant guest accommodations, and an underground garage for up to ten vehicles complete the lifestyle made possible at Simka Malibu.
Simka Malibu offers something profoundly uncommon for the buyer seeking more than a trophy address: a home engineered and designed for the ages. It represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity to acquire not just a Malibu estate, but a lasting monument to thoughtful, future-forward living.
