Every so often, there’s a home design that just ‘feels’ right. From the proportions to the materials and the use of space, certain homes just strike the right balance.
In this case, it happens to take the shape of a large and luxurious modernist beauty in Pacific Palisades, California.
This complete renovation of an existing home is nestled in the hills outside Los Angeles, and luckily were spared the recent wildfires that demolished so many residences.
Not only does this tick the boxes visually for us, but it also wins points by updating an earlier design from legendary designer Richard Neutra. The designers took the existing Neutra design, and thoroughly overhauled it to more genuinely reflect the home’s potential.
We love this balance of modern and friendly, with a great use of materials that feel warm, and full of texture. Neutra was a pioneer in the Mid-century era, and we think he’d be thrilled by the overall look and feel of the Rustic Canyon residence.
The design work is by Assembledge+ and Jamie Bush + Co. Click through the gallery below to see more of this home’s impressive detail.
“The current design of Rustic Canyon Residence seeks to restore this lost architectural unity, paying homage to its historical roots while integrating the principles of organic modernism,” the team said.
“This project reflects the core of our design philosophy – creating warm, modern spaces that celebrate natural materials, craftsmanship, quality, and a sense of humanity,” principal and founder Jamie Bush said.
