A masterpiece of Mid century Modernism, The Veneklasen House was completed in 1951 by architect Kenneth Lind with Modernist maestro Pierre Koenig, famous for his Case Study Houses (#21 and #22); Koenig put a significant mark on the structure, most notably the living room with its distinctive accordion-fold glass wall. Situated up a private drive, off Mandeville Canyon Road, the residence is unassuming and discrete, accessed via a gated front courtyard; it underwent a comprehensive renovation in the period of 2019-2021 when Los Angeles-based firm, Chu-Gooding Architects, executed a masterful restoration and expansion plan, for which it won the 2022 AIA LA Award for historic preservation. One of the residence's most compelling features is the second level addition that created a gracious primary suite that takes advantage of the home's perch and canyon setting resulting in an experience that evokes the most luxurious tree-house ever built. A classic post and beam structure with expansive glass walls that reveal meticulous gardens, including an awe-inspiring tree that is more sculpture than tree, the v-shaped residence's elegant kitchen is the pivot point ensuring effortless flow and easy indoor-outdoor living. The interior material palette of dark walnut and grey green quartzite is introduced upon entering and continues consistently throughout; the craftsmanship of the millwork, finishes, and features is unparalleled. The Veneklasen House is a warm, elegant, eminently-livable home that is an indelible icon of Los Angeles' singular design heritage.
