Modern US Home Inspired by the Ingenious Functionality of Scandinavian Design

Showcasing an optimum indoor-outdoor connection, this modern residence designed byJendretzki Architects offers a practical an healthy living environment. According to the architects, “this new pavilion added to an existing mid century house in the Rustic Canyon area of Santa Monica bordering the Pacific Palisades involved negotiating the high functioning requirements of a Los Angeles based family and their love for Scandinavian design and detailing”. Simple lines and ingenious functionality are two of the main features of the Santa Monica Residence.

The building has a total surface of 12,000 square feet and is well connected with its surroundings: “By utilizing a muted material palette of light toned wood and glass we were able to harmoniously engage the southern California sun and create a tranquil work studio and inviting home.” The interiors are characterized by a minimalist approach, with wood playing a major role in creating a friendly atmosphere; have a look and tell us what you think!
