Location: Los Angeles, California
Existing Conditions
Tucked away in the hills over Los Angeles in the community of Silver Lake, the owner of this 1930’s era home is looking to renovate the living area to include the kitchen, dining and living rooms. Since these rooms are clustered on the north side of the house, they tend to be dark. Also, the three rooms are disconnected from each other, small and not suitable for hosting social events. Lastly, the owner would like to increase the ceiling height in the living room to give the room a greater sense of volume. The design challenge is to address all of these conditions.
