Crescent House

Los Angeles, California

With the last of their children grown and living with their own families, the owners of this mid-century modern William Krisel house asked RIOS to reconfigure it as a home for a couple. The transformation preserves the significant character of the home, while creating gracious and bright central spaces that open to garden and city views.

Weaving the Zen aesthetic throughout the rest of the landscape, the rock garden was extended to surround the entire footprint of the existing house. Terrazzo “lily pads” inset in a pebble path act as stepping stones.

To complete the interiors, we added a mixture of original and reissued mid-century pieces, placing
the home squarely in context. The owners’ eclectic collection of fine art and antiques make for a decidedly personal interior experience.
