House of the three gable roof volumes

House of the three gable roof volumes

The unusual and repetitive design of this Hollywood Hills residence is inspired by the Kimbell Art Museum in Texas, which has a similar structure but features domed and rounded volumes. The home is located in Los Angeles and was designed by Studio Standard Architecture.

You can see three simple volumes parallel to each other and connected by gabled roofs. The house is situated on a cliff and offers a beautiful 180 degree view of the city. The volumes appear symmetrical, with large windows front and back and sliding glass doors to connect them to the beautiful outdoor spaces.

The central volume houses the open plan living and dining area and has a double height ceiling, creating a very airy and spacious feel. There is also a kitchen and home cinema, as well as a set of large pivoting glass doors connecting the interior spaces to an open terrace. The rear garden is framed on the outer edge by a trapezoidal cantilevered infinity pool. The rest of the space is filled with terraces and casual lounge areas surrounded by greenery.

The other two volumes frame the central living area and are divided into two levels. They contain four bedrooms on the upper floor that are connected to a shared terrace. Light, airy and welcoming, they enjoy wonderful views and a close connection with nature.
