10-19 Architecture

2522 Aiken Ave brings bold forms and new life to an old single-story house in a traditional neighborhood.  The new 3-story structure provides 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms in an open floor plan whose heart is a 2-story atrium.  Bright, expansive glazing draw in the outdoors on every level, and a steel/wood louver/guardrail screen animates the street facade.  The back of the house hovers above the rear-sloping lot and wraps around a majestic Ash tree, creating a tree house-like effect for the adjacent spaces.  The tree in turn provides welcome shade.  From its interior spaces and multiple decks, the new house provides views of Rancho Park Golf Course, Century City, and the Santa Monica Mountains.
