DELANO RESIDENCE

LOCATED IN THE NORTH HOLLYWOOD AREA OF THE CITY OF LOS ANGELES IN THE SAN FERNANDO VALLEY, THIS HOUSE WAS A HUMBLE TWO-BEDROOM, TWO-BATH HOUSE. THE HOUSE HAD A GREAT BACKYARD WITH A POOL AND A STRUCTURE IN THE BACK WITH AN OFFICE AND A GARAGE; WE WERE ENTRUSTED TO CREATE AN ACCESSORY DWELLING UNIT, ADU, WHERE THE OFFICE AND GARAGE WERE, AND REMODEL THE FRONT HOUSE AND FRONT YARD.

​

THE RESULT WAS A CALIFORNIA LIVING EXPERIENCE: THE HOUSE IS OPEN TO THE POOL AND BACK YARD, THE ADU SHARES THE COMMON SPACE TO INTEGRATE THE FRONT HOUSE TO THE ADU, AND THE FAÇADE TO THE POOL FROM THE ADU ADDS TO THE DRAMA OF THE SPACE.
