Surrounded by an eclectic mix of housing styles in Silverlake, this modern duplex presents a contextual massing which provides a sense of privacy towards neighbors while dematerializing internally.  The open plan is designed around a floating staircase which serves as a sculptural centerpiece for the entire home.  The main floor includes a kitchen/living room space that extends onto the backyard garden by virtue of 9ft. wide pocket doors.  Windows are designed to allow maximum light in and provide views of the Hollywood Hills.
