Fryman Canyon Residence

Set in the hills of Studio City, the Fryman Canyon Residence revitalizes a 1957 mid-century home, blending its original character with modern updates that integrate architecture, interiors, and landscape.

Floor-to-ceiling windows and sliding glass doors flood the home with light and extend living spaces into the garden. Zig-zag-sliding doors connect the main rooms to the outdoors, while a sunken family room and an elevated kitchen, featuring skylights and white marble, enhance openness and flow.

A two-story addition introduces a bedroom wing and office, maintaining the home’s minimalist palette of stone, hardwood, and white plaster, while the extended roof preserves mid-century horizontality.

The tiered landscape, with drought-tolerant plants, decomposed granite paths, and concrete garden walls, seamlessly ties the house to its natural surroundings, creating a cohesive indoor-outdoor living experience.
