Maison Jordan

Matthew built the shelves and painted them Charcoal Blue from Sherwin Williams. The new windows throughout the house are Milgard.

Wall shelving is made of wood salvaged from other parts of the house.

Matthew previously fabricated custom furniture for a decade, so built all of the kitchen cabinets, banquette and table, and island. The latter is made of a 120-year-old beam from the house that had to be replaced. Matthew counted the rings and surmises it was from a tree that started growing before the American Revolution. The perimeter counters are cherry and Butcher designed the upper cabinet to float over the window, which casts sunlight through the glassware and rainbows over the room.

Matthew and Holly opened up the foyer and kept the exposed framing in place to speak to the house’s history. The figurine on the newel post is not original to the house, but a vintage replacement found online and rewired by Matthew.

“We appreciate that Geberit’s carriers are engineered for narrow wall depths, which is a huge advantage in these older homes,” Slocum says.

The residence’s living area features vintage furniture and Vitsoe shelving.

The shed turned recording studio is 10 feet by 12 feet.

Hershenow and Davidson soundproofed an off-the-rack Tuff Shed to use as Hershenow’s recording studio in the backyard.

The home features a mix of sourced vintage and new lighting fixtures.

The bathroom has floor-to-ceiling tile and a stained-glass window installed by a previous owner.

Music producer Max Hershenow and lighting designer Nick Davidson renovated a 1947 bungalow in the Tujunga neighborhood of Los Angeles.
