Description

Two months furnished lease in this beautiful architectural home in Echo Park. Close to coffee shops and restaurants. Beautiful views from the balcony into the hills and from the covered patio, which can be completely opened up from the living room into the garden. Remodeled by Mexico City-based architecture firm PRODUCTORA. They extended the small California Bungalow through a grid-like steel frame. "Six cubic squares make up the framework of the addition, which includes covered terraces, the upstairs master bedroom, and two new interior spaces that are incorporated into the kitchen area on the lower level. The placement just a few feet shy of the original facade creates a transitional space that mediates between the house and garden, protecting it from the afternoon sun. Focusing on a minimal material palette, elements of the design are reinforced and repeated to create a cohesive set of interconnected spaces. The same marble that lines the bathtub also forms the kitchen countertop. Highlighting the tension between texture and solid color, the architects incorporated oak wood and concrete flooring with wooden cabinetry painted in soft pinks and dark green." (Dwell, 2017)
