While boasting an incredible view, this couple’s Silverlake hillside house was missing a yard, outdoor entertaining area, or space for their dog. Enclosing an exterior space, adding built-in lounge seating and creatively lighting the area created the perfect gathering place. Newly installed French doors connects the new space to the main living area. Custom mirror panels reflect the landscape from the other side of the house and provides welcoming nighttime illumination via reflected LED lanterns. Enclosing the space with Ipe fencing spaced at 1-inch intervals provides privacy with visual breathing room adding to the overall mid-century meets Zen vibe.
