Project Description
Secluded above the Sunset Strip with unrivaled vistas of Los Angeles and the Pacific, this alluring, contemporary home is organized along a curved spine to take advantage of panoramic views from the Griffith Observatory, past downtown, and all the way to the Getty Center.
A glimpse of spectacular city lights through the glass entry in a backlit bronze screen is an enticing introduction to what the home has to offer. Gently curved stucco and Italian basalt-clad walls insure privacy while showcasing a two-story glass stair tower.
From the home’s entrance inside the double-height great room, a winding stair leads down to the entertaining level where expansive glass walls enhance the seamless flow between the kitchen and great room and from the interior to the exterior. LED lighting is used throughout to increase the home’s energy-efficiency.
Perched above, on the top level, the master suite commands breathtaking views. Glass walls blur the lines between interior and exterior, while the perforations in metal canopies cast undulating patterns of light and shadow as the sun travels across the sky.
The landscape design features long, curving walls that intersect, creating the pool and terraces. Drought-tolerant plants and sub-surface irrigation reduce water consumption and runoff. Guests can lounge in the covered bar, gather for dinner at the outdoor kitchen, or enjoy the sunset over the LA basin. This home offers many opportunities for enjoying the California lifestyle year-round.
