Home of the Day: Contemporary chameleon in Hancock Park

This sleek, modern residence in Hancock Park is obscured from the street by the facade of a 1924 Spanish-style bungalow. Bridging old and new, interiors offer a mixture of contemporary styles while maintaining select period details of the original home. Outdoors, a spa lined in yellow and red tiles adds a splash of color and a visual contrast to the concrete and glass exterior.
