Sleek modern kitchen along with the daft dining area have been designed keeping in mind the modern trend of clean and well defined spaces. The dark wall behind the headboard of the bed gives the bedroom an exclusive look while interesting art work throughout the home helps take the style quotient up a notch or two. A perfect urban dwelling that strikes a balance between elegance and ergonomics!
As noted on the Brooks + Scarpa website this home seamlessly blends with the hillside merging the natural and the artificial in the most intriguing of ways. Luis Vasquez is the project’s engineer and he worked his magic with the architects to create a property that has won the AIA Los Angeles NextLA Award as well as the honor of being exhibited at the National Building Museum’s “Liquid Stone Exhibit” in Washington D.C.

Below we see a “before” shot of the silo. It’s hard to believe it would soon become an upscale lodging destination! This unit can accommodate up to two adults and two children:
The interior of the home boasts features such as custom cabinets and pinewood flooring.

The innovative structure basically consists of three distinctively separate sections which combine seamlessly with one another. A carport that doubles up as an external patio area is the first to greet you with a large glass enclosure that is right next to it providing for a relaxing lounge area. The glass box has been designed to provide unobstructed views of the flowing river as you also enjoy a 360 degree view of the world outside.
