In the heart of Los Angeles’ from Palms to Venice adjacent, a modern sanctuary emerges from the urban landscape, blending contemporary design and bohemian elegance. The residence at 13213 Rose Avenue stands as a testament to modern architectural prowess, enveloped by walls of glass that tuck away, merging the interior with the lush exterior.

About the design:

Conceptualized and brought to life in 2016 by the esteemed Carlos Zubieta Architects in collaboration with owner and renowned creative visionary, Limore Shur, this residence is a profound expression of modern, sustainable, and contextually respectful design. 

The architectural canvas is painted with a refined palette of natural cedar, which elegantly juxtaposes with the Tadao Ando-inspired concrete, embodying a serene yet bold modern aesthetic. The open floor plan, delineated by sleek lines and bathed in abundant natural light, is emblematic of Zubieta’s ethos of fostering community and connectivity within the living spaces. This design philosophy is further manifested through the seamless integration of indoor and outdoor realms, blurring the conventional boundaries and offering a harmonious transition between the built and natural environments. 

The home, in its essence, is not merely a dwelling but a living sculpture, embodying a contemporary design ethos that pays homage to both the cultural and natural tapestry of its locale, all the while reflecting the innovative spirit of Carlos Zubieta’s architectural narrative.”
