Living, dining, and kitchen spaces flow into one another in the soaring great room. Here, the Sacramento firm placed new, polished concrete slabs over the original ones to alleviate unsightly cracks.
The home's main living space consists of a classic open floor plan, with beautiful exposed-beam ceilings.
Originally built in 1949 by Richard Neutra, Alexander Ban, and Josef Van Der Kar, the Millard Kaufman Residence is located in the Hollywood Hills of Los Angeles, California.
A few steps lead up to the dining room area.
The renovation opened the kitchen to the living space and added an island for increased prep and storage space.
An entrance lounge and concealed laundry are located on the entrance level, where there is also a small lounge area with books.
A non-load bearing window wall—a characteristic feature of Usonian houses—dominates the living room.
The front of the wall that separates the kitchen from this playroom is a chalkboard where the couple’s son can play and draw.
Pocket-sliding glass doors offer seamless connection to the outdoors.
Faced with a giant wall of glass, the new concrete extension houses an open-plan living area, dining room and kitchen.

The villa has five bedrooms, all with en-suite bathrooms, fireplaces, and air conditioning.
The front great room is intentionally public; the furniture-like wall (inspired by Mies’ Farnsworth house) creates privacy for all other rooms—even with no window coverings. No rooms have interior walls that connect with the outer perimeter of the house, echoing a design element of our 1958 E. Stewart Williams house in Palm Springs, CA.

The Dune House is a RIBA Award-winning home created through Living Architecture, a UK-based organization that commissions world-class architects to build holiday rental homes with an overarching goal of expanding the conversation of what constitutes good design. The home, which sits nestled among coastal dunes just steps from the sea, was designed by Jarmund/Vigsnæs Architects as a modern take on English seaside buildings. The roof—constructed to echo the style of local dwellings—features orange steel alloy, which reflects the changing colors of the surrounding landscape. The interior is flanked by banks of windows that overlook the sea and sky for a serene and immersive experience.
