Designed for a constrained Hollywood Hills site, Hedges transforms a compact footprint into a modern home where architecture and outdoor living unfold across multiple levels.
The home’s minimalist exterior reveals only glimpses of the light filled interior beyond, but once inside, the home opens up into a spacious light filled foyer with double height glass walls, a floating staircase, and glass floor detail that adds a sense of interconnectedness between the different levels.
Organized in an open plan design, the living room, kitchen, and dining area open directly onto an outdoor terrace that’s the social heart of the home. With casual seating, a fire pit feature, barbecue, and infinity-edge swimming pool, this outdoor area anchors the design, socially and architecturally.
Above, the primary suite occupies its own private floor, with a glass walled bedroom, spa-inspired bath, walk-in closet, and generous terrace with fire feature and shaded pergola covering.
The lower level provides a quieter extension of the home, with a family room and two additional bedroom suites that open onto an additional private patio with fire pit.
Ensuring that each outdoor living space can engage with the others, an exterior spiral staircase links each of the home’s terraces, starting on the bottom floor, rising to the pool terrace, and ending at the patio of the primary suite. At the highest point of the home, a secluded rooftop deck offers an exclusive setting for relaxation and entertaining. Centered around a spa, fire feature, and comfortable lounge area, it offers expansive views under an open sky, and distinctly private atmosphere high above the rest of the house.
More than a response to its hillside setting, Hedges is an exploration of how architecture can create openness within a compact site, and live across multiple interconnected levels. Carefully composed volumes, abundant natural light, and seamless transitions between indoors and out establish a calm, contemporary home that provides a unique rhythm for luxury everyday living.
