LAUN Studio’s design for a 1930s bungalow in Silver Lake included a full interior remodel and addition. Nestled in a neighborhood known for its spectacular hilltop vistas, the studio opened up the space to maximize the expansive views overlooking downtown Los Angeles and into the home’s inviting front and rear gardens.

The visual centerpiece of the house is its dramatic brass kitchen surrounded by a pink marble island and green lacquer “box” which functions as a standalone architectural object within the space. The structure creates distinct zones for the kitchen / dining area and living room while cleverly serving practical storage needs: It is at once a pantry, coat closet and art display wall.
