Lorenzo and Manuel moved to Beverly Hills after separating from their former Lair in Las district Los Feliz, a locus of Eastside Cool, for a young, tedious couple at the top of fashion, a locus of Eastside cool. “We just searched for a little more privacy and space, more calm and calm,” says Manuel about the decision to move. “In Beverly Hills it feels like they are not in the city's chaos, but somehow still in it. It's nice to look out of your window and not stare into your neighbor's house,” she adds.
For both the Los Feliz project and this current home, the couple opted for working with Tommy and Kathleen Clements of the AD100 company Clement's Design, in which they had committed SimpoCO employees as equally the power of serenity and silence. “Both Jerry and Desiree like to keep it easy, which is always refreshing. They have an incredibly cultivated taste, but it is very reduced,” says Kathleen about aesthetic relationship. “They are completely in line with the emotional, visceral aspects of a room,” continues Tommy. “They wanted to create rooms that are both comfortable and inspiring. It was not about putting together a checklist of trophy objects and brave names.”
Part of the attraction of the new residence was the finished condition. Apart from cosmetic improvements – stone elections, colors, etc. – no significant structural changes were required, except for the conversion of one of the two garages of the house into a combination -mutroom, butler's pantry and laundry. Much of Lorenzo's attention was trained on the reinterpretation of the landscape, including the conversion of a tennis court into a sunken garden to offer the children enough space to roam and play. “The river of the space between the interior and the outer is seamless. The neutral palette of the house can be felt the green,” says Lorenzo, describing the emendations of the landscape architect Tomer Levi of double green landscapes. “The garden is like the outfit that carries the house.”
