Openhouse, Hollywood, CA, by XTEN Architecture

Set in a visible hillside area above Sunset Boulevard, the Openhouse by XTEN Architecture appears as a simple folded line with recessed glass planes, a strong sculptural form at the scale of the site.


The minimalist logic of the architecture is transformed by direct and indirect connections to nature.






With the glass walls completely open the house becomes a platform defined by an abstract roof plane, a palette of natural materials, hillside, gardens and the views.





















To me the gardens are soooo nice, to bad I can’t have any of those plants in my climate.
Gorgeous home. A view to die for.
hmm…so nice! Fantastic minimalism. I’m looking for a multi-millionnaire to marry me

ashton kutcher lived there for a while in the movie ‘spread’
Well personnally i think that the house is vulnerable to the elements and highly impractical to live in, therefore the overall success of the ‘Open House’is limited and cannot be rated as an achitectural master piece!
so shut up bumming the house fags!
