McClean Design

A hillside setting in the Bird Streets inspired a home that embraces light, landscape, and the rhythm of everyday living. Elevated above the street, the main level captures expansive views across Los Angeles while a series of skylights, light wells, and courtyards bring natural light deep into every level.

The arrival unfolds gradually through a quiet entry sequence, where layered outdoor spaces, water, and sculptural circulation create a sense of calm before opening to bright, interconnected living spaces centered around the garden and pool.

Below, entertainment, wellness, and guest spaces continue the same connection to light and landscape, proving that even the lower level can feel open and inviting.

A restrained palette of plaster, stone, wood, and metal ties the architecture together, creating a home that feels both timeless and deeply connected to its setting.

Designed to take full advantage of its Hollywood Hills setting, this residence creates a seamless connection between architecture, landscape, and the expansive views beyond. A linear arrangement of spaces allows every major room to engage with the garden, terrace, and horizon, bringing natural light deep into the home.

A defining feature of the project is the 110-foot electronically operable multi-slide glass wall, allowing the main level to open almost entirely to the outdoors. The result is a continuous living environment where interior spaces flow effortlessly to the infinity-edge pool, terrace, and surrounding landscape.

Arrival unfolds as a carefully choreographed sequence, beginning with a water garden at the entry before revealing the dramatic views beyond. Public living spaces occupy the main level for direct access to the outdoor amenities, while the upper floor is dedicated to private bedroom suites and more intimate retreats.
