Kuhlhaus 02 by LeanArch Architects
This single family residence located in the Gaslight District of Manhattan Beach is one in a series of homes commissioned by Kuhlhaus Development, LLC and produced by the award-winning Los Angeles based Design/Build firm Lean Arch, Inc. Committed to responsible development – redefining the modern home in response to concerns regarding energy consumption, land-use and the environment – this solar powered home with an open plan and large glass sliding doors create both visual and physical continuity between the interior and exterior. Flexible use spaces including the multiple outdoor patio and deck areas and a nod to “industrial chic” through use of building materials demonstrate why Kuhlhaus 02 is Build It Green rated.

LOVE IT! a nice set of color and life to a nicely designed modern home. Great style and use of spaces.

why is it that there is a never ending supply of beautifully designed structures with landscapes from 1988 suburban cul-de-sacs? it’s disgusting. if the landscape that the structure sits within is horrible, so bleeds the building.
nice mulch.

Funny that the windows are outside of the facade panel pattern

I like it too, especially the orange going through the house and the big windows.

Fantastic work. Beautiful detailing and great attention to quality. Also for a modern home it is restrained but also highly creative in its use of materials.
