Ledge
The Ledge Ave. Residence is a master suite addition to an existing 1920’s art deco home in the San Fernando Valley. The original home’s stylistic cues: variations in ceiling height, corner windows, broad overhangs, etc, are reinterpreted in contemporary fashion. Large expanses of glass bring light and landscape in, and large expanses of wall serve as mounting space for the work of one of the clients, an artist. At the rear of the property, a standalone studio building provides a space that serves as both art studio and a practice space for the other client, a classical violinist. The original house, master suite and studio all open onto a lush back yard, engaging the landscape.
