DOWN FROM MULHOLLAND

Attached to a grand private estate in the Hollywood Hills, this modern-style house on Mulholland Drive sits on a graded hillside overlooking one of the best views in Los Angeles. A recent owner of the property had it refurnished for her son. The area around the pool, which dramatically juts out into the horizon, received a new travertine piazza, and decorated with onyx benches and fire pit. The formerly inaccessible gradient leading down from the house was landscaped with shady trees and Alice in Wonderland pathways—the perfect escape after poolside drinks. With the downtown skyscrapers alluringly framed in the distance, this house offers the classic room with a view.
