Canyon Residence

Los Angeles, CA

This single-story dwelling meanders along a narrow canyon shelf at the top of a ridge. Vast views of the hillsides beyond are framed by an undulating ceiling, created with a geometric ruled surface, mirroring the distant terrain.

This one-story renovated home emulates the California lifestyle for family life by striking a balance between interior and exterior spaces. Upon entering the property, the hillside, landscape, and residence intertwine. Each interior space has at least one outdoor room that is intrinsically connected. Some outdoor rooms are more intimate and protected between the hillside and the house, while others feel boundless and expansive, looking out over the canyon to distant views beyond.
