Contemporary “California Cool” House by Belzberg Architects

The spectacular Brentwood Residence in Los Angeles combines two California traditions – contemporary architecture and alfresco living – in a 12,000-sq.-ft. space. Completed in 2007 by Belzberg Architects, this modern house design boasts a simple exterior of geometric lines and a crisp, white facade framing windows from the ground up. The perfectly manicured lawn abuts a stone patio and pool area – it wouldn’t be “California” without it. Outdoor lounging areas lead into the house via floor-to-ceiling windows, enhancing the large and sunny spaces. Inside, a predominantly cool, white color palette is warmed up by the rich, wood floors, wood accents and a lustrous wooden glass-encased staircase leading to the luxurious private living areas upstairs.
