Rockefeller Partners Architects designs Mandeville Canyon home
Published: 31-Mar-2010
US-based Rockefeller Partners Architects has completed designing the Mandeville Canyon home in Los Angeles, California
Spread over an area of 3.14-acre, the site initially featured a total of 200 grown trees. The house has been divided into two main wings: the first wing includes public living spaces and master suites, the second features children’s quarters, guest rooms, and auxiliary spaces.
On the inside, the house features a stone hearth at the center, where a multi-functional stone fireplace wall has been integrated that extends upwards to the second floor and the roof, later penetrating into the exterior of the wall to become a landscape feature along the pool. This stone wall is home to a double-sided fireplace that serves the formal living room and family room as well as the private fireplace for the upstairs master bedroom.
The master suite and home office is located in order to enable the homeowners to work in proximity to their family without sacrificing privacy. The guest rooms have been allotted separate entrances in order to maintain the privacy at home.
The house also includes a four-car garage, a 1950’s-era post and beam pool house which has now been redesigned as a writer’s studio, an oversized pool and spa, a basketball court, and a tennis court with a small pavilion.
Alana Homesley has designed the interiors of this house in collaboration with the Rockefeller Partners. The house’s façade is cladded with gray-stained cedar. The home also includes mahogany doors and window frames, and a polished concrete wall that stretches three stories from the basement through the roof. The walk-in closet with custom Italian cabinetry in the master suite leads to the bathroom featuring an angular bathtub and the contiguous glass.
