The house was designed by and for the architect on an inner urban lot in West Hollywood, California. In an effort to reduce the house to a set of essential ideas, responses to existing conditions began to set the pattern of the house. On entering the front gate, a visitor can see the full depth of the site – from the olive grove, through the glazed living room, to the rear yard and swimming pool – which enlarges the scale of the house. The living room is compressed in height, but opens to the two-story kitchen/dining room. The house addresses contemporary California living. There is one unified social space – the heart of the house – comprising living, dining and kitchen. Video projection is also used in the living room. There is a raw expression of structure throughout the house – ceilings are exposed diagonal wood sheathing with a sprayed insulation roof on top. Walls are white drywall. [via]
