Living room - mid-century modern living room idea in Los Angeles

The existing brick patio was relocated to the back of the garden. Ehrlich designed a galvanized steel trellis inspired by the sleeping porches of Schindler’s 1922 Kings Road masterpiece to provide shade and support for a 70-year-old grape vine growing on the property. (Photo: Grant Mudford)

The home is an articulated flat-roofed box, with clerestory windows and large panels of glass bringing in light and opening interior spaces to the garden. (Photo: Grant Mudford)
