Creating Grand View Pt. 2

More about our now completed house on Grand View Drive in the Hollywood Hills. The lot was long and narrow, but sat on a hilltop with views waiting to be framed and realized.

A ship-like structure of glass and wood now rides against the blue California sky. Inside, a calm neutral palette of whites, grays, and taupe continues throughout rooms, which flow together easily. The “glass box” stairway leads up through the center of the house, to a rooftop deck perfect for sunning and entertaining.

The kitchen is also featured in our blog post, Creating Grand View Pt. 1, and more spectacular views can be found pinned on our "Los Angeles Views” Pinterest Board.
