Westwood Dr.

John Webb Construction and Design

This 2 story home was originally built in 1952 on a tree covered hillside. Our company transformed this little shack into a luxurious home with a million dollar view by adding high ceilings, wall of glass facing the south providing natural light all year round, and designing an open living concept. The home has a built-in gas fireplace with tile surround, custom IKEA kitchen with quartz countertop, bamboo hardwood flooring, two story cedar deck with cable railing, master suite with walk-through closet, two laundry rooms, 2.5 bathrooms, office space, and mechanical room.

Mid-Century Modern Condo in Historic Capitol Hill

Finesse Design Remodeling

A two-bed, two-bath condo located in the Historic Capitol Hill neighborhood of Washington, DC was reimagined with the clean lined sensibilities and celebration of beautiful materials found in Mid-Century Modern designs. A soothing gray-green color palette sets the backdrop for cherry cabinetry and white oak floors. Specialty lighting, handmade tile, and a slate clad corner fireplace further elevate the space. A new Trex deck with cable railing system connects the home to the outdoors.

Los Feliz Residence

Dutton Architects Inc.

A modern mid-century house in the Los Feliz neighborhood of the Hollywood Hills, this was an extensive renovation. The house was brought down to its studs, new foundations poured, and many walls and rooms relocated and resized. The aim was to improve the flow through the house, to make if feel more open and light, and connected to the outside, both literally through a new stair leading to exterior sliding doors, and through new windows along the back that open up to canyon views. photos by Undine Prohl

Main Staircase As the new main focal point of the home, the stairs were designed with clean lines and a slightly industrial feel. The stingers, tread supports and railing posts are fabricated from powder coated tubular and flat steel. The handrails, treads and landing are solid 1 1/2" thick maple. The treads and landing are treaded with a non-slip polyurethane. There are over 400 stainless steel fittings and nearly 1000’ of stainless steel cable that make up the railings.

Think of an umbrella. The metal spines start at a central point and flare outwards towards a stiffened fabric edge. At that taut outer edge sit the faceted walls of glass. The metal umbrella spines are the mammoth steel beams seen in the photos supporting the house and radiate back to a central point. That central point is a curved steel and glass staircase stretched like a long slinky up through all three floors and wraps around a cylindrical teak elevator.
