Design Associate: Michael Lee

The Assignment: This Palisades fire rebuild adds two bedrooms, an upstairs laundry room, and a basement with a game room, recording studio, and gym, while retaining the original program and similar layout of the original house. By incorporating a neighboring lot, a new southeast wing increases backyard privacy for the pool and spa. Texture and materiality define the exterior, combining brick, horizontal lap siding, and vertical T&G siding with large backyard-facing windows.

Currently: In plan check.

Standout Details: The stair hall includes a full-height glass wall, reminiscent of the original, leading out to the backyard. A three-story open stair connects the basement to the second floor.

Sustainable Features:  Multizone VRF HVAC system, electric heat pump water heater, and PV solar panels. Fire resilience includes DensGlass/DensDeck sheathing, Brava faux-slate roofing, a sealed attic, aluminum-clad windows and doors, and fiber cement details.
