Los Angeles studio AUX Architecture, led by Brian Wickersham, have recently completed a modern house in West Hollywood, California, that’s been designed to foster an indoor / outdoor lifestyle.
The exterior of the house has white stucco paired with gray Equitone fiber cement board panels to create a dramatic appearance on the street.

A frosted front door welcomes people to the home, and once inside, there’s stairs that lead to the upper floor of the home, and a small sitting area.

On the wall that runs alongside the swimming pool there’s a patterned green wall that’s filled with succulents.

Challenged by a lot only 40 feet (12m) wide, the residence features living spaces that have all been designed to open it up to the outside. At one end of the open interior is the living room that’s focused on the fireplace.

Between the living room and the kitchen is the dining room. A modern and geometric chandelier sits above the dining table and anchors it in the large open plan room.

In the kitchen, wood cabinetry has been paired with light countertops for a modern appearance. A central island with a secondary sink adds more counterspace to the large kitchen, and provides a place to have a wine fridge and additional storage.

Back outside and at the end of the house is a staircase that leads up to a private patio area.

From the stairs and patio, you are able to see a somewhat hidden green roof that has some of the same plants as the green wall by the pool.

The upper patio, which is furnished with a couch and a few ottomans, provides access to the master bedroom and office.

In a second bathroom, three dimensional grey tiles have been used to create an accent wall, while a backlit mirror highlights the design of the wall.
