SAMPLE HOME - MANDEVILLE CANYON
In the heart of Brentwood is this Mandeville Canyon study of modernism created by architect Jesse Bornstein. References to Los Angeles’s great modernists, like A. Quincy Jones, flow throughout its tree-shrouded surrounds as inspiration for this custom gated compound. This sustainable property encompasses a 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath main house with an office, den, gym, and a guest house with bath, pool and spa amid an arrestingly tranquil xeriscape. Timeless and natural materials such as polished concrete, ribbons of black aluminum, gypsum plaster and a rich mix of woods like walnut and California redwood blend with all manner and form of glass — creating a dramatic, expansive space that seamlessly interacts with the natural landscape and light.
With a living space of 6,000sqft, photographing this quiet enclave in the canyon as the sun moved from daytime into evening was a delight.
