Modern San Lorenzo Residence by Mike Jacobs Architecture

San Lorenzo residence is a contemporary home located at the end of a canyon road,and was designed by Mike Jacobs Architecture for a client in Los Angeles, California, USA.

Aside from the fact that the house itself is a genuine work of art, it is emphasized by the surrounding landscapes- a private garden and manicured fairways of a golf course that add value to the property.

The house is organized by two interlocking “L-shaped” as it follows: the first “L-shape”, which is an open enclosure and veranda, includes the garden, the pool, the living rooms and the theater, while the second “L-shape”, which is an opaque enclosure, features the private bedrooms and the service spaces.

The sliding doors that open to the south and the windows facing north create the connection with the exterior and also cool the house and draw fresh air to naturally ventilate the house.
