Before & After: A Muddled Midcentury Home in L.A. Gets a Showstopping Makeover

Perched on a sloped lot in the Studio City neighborhood of Los Angeles, this 1965 home has a striking entryway defined by double-height walls of glass. "It wasn’t designed and built by a notable architect, as far as I know, but it very much has the architecture of a traditional Buff and Hensman home," says lead designer Patrick Maziarski of the Altadena interiors firm A1000xBetter.
