Prominent roof planes, projecting eaves and timber-lined soffits all contribute to the dramatic form of this new home

​​​​​​​From a crest in the Hollywood Hills, this expansive home enjoys 300° views south to downtown Los Angeles through to the ocean in the west. But architect Mark Bullivant of SAOTA says the building’s roof planes, projecting eaves and timber-lined soffits also make the home a feature when viewed from West Hollywood below, as well as providing a dramatic arrival sequence.
