ELL is a spec residence in a prime location on top of scenic Benedict Canyon, Beverly Hills, California.
The building is design-built on an existing footprint, yet adding a second story to the project. The building is shielded to the street but opens all private and public rooms to the unobstructed view overlooking Benedict Canyon. The steep hillside is crowned with a zero-edge pool and outdoor lounge. Thematically the project is kept contemporary minimal, focusing on detail resolution and an open floor plan, playing out mass versus lightness through concise volumetric interactions.
