Modern Minimal Townhouse Renovation Creates Polished Living Environment

Renovating a townhouse to create a more modern and functional interior for the evolving urban family is nothing that we have not already seen. But what is new is the brilliant transformation of this particular townhouse designed by Shperling Design that embraces minimalism with an air of eye-catching sophistication. It is not every day that you find a townhouse that is this contemporary in its overall style and you can sense it right away from the entry that features a very thin, while console table and a large, colorful modern wall art piece. Next to it is a small mudroom with wooden cabinets and an oval mirror that creates a cheerful atmosphere.

This light-filled and refined approach to the renovation continues in the new open plan living space where the kitchen and dining area become a part of the narrative. A wall previously separated the kitchen from the living space. This has been removed to shape a more open lower level where the public areas present one uniform picture. The single-wall kitchen sits on once corner while the opposite side is occupied by a plush light blue sofa. A large dining table in the middle is illuminated by slim white pendant lights.

Another unique feature in here is the white marble fireplace where the television is mounted above the fireplace carefully. Wooden shutters and glass doors bring a hint of the past to this exquisite home where modernity takes over completely.

    Abraham Shapiro, AIA, Architect :: Mid-Century Modern. Tucked into a cul-de-sac at the very top of the Encino hills, a stone’s throw to Mulholland and a three-minute drive to the Skirball Cultural Center, this masterfully designed and recently renovated architectural home is close to everything the City has to offer. Next door to Bel Air, Brentwood and Beverly Hills, with easy access to the 405, and just up the street from Ventura Boulevard, the location couldn’t be more convenient. Designed as his own personal residence by influential architect Abe Shapiro, onetime partner of both Bill Krisel and Herb Nadel, this historic property has the clean lines and disciplined detailing consistent with the preeminent USC School of Architecture that dominated residential design in LA in the middle part of the last century. Rebuilt from top to bottom in 2016, the result is a brand new home respectful of the original design, yet upgraded to the standards of the new millennium. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors connect the interior to the landscape, flooding the interior with natural light, together with skylights and clerestory windows. An elegant cook’s kitchen with sleek custom cabinetry and high-end appliances opens directly to the living room and dining room, ideal for entertaining. Valley views, multiple fireplaces, sculptural wine display cabinet, wide plank white oak floors, Carrara marble, porcelain tile, European hardware, designer light fixtures, swimming pool with spa, fire pit, and outdoor kitchen complete the unparalleled package of amenities.
