While most of the classical homes in this Mid-Wilshire neighborhood celebrate the creek with garden features and backyard bridges, architect Dan Brunn chose to do something radically different. He built his home over the brook.
Hidden in Mid-Wilshire is an enchanting eight-street enclave called Brookside. True to its name, the tree-lined community is set apart by the flowing water feature that runs from the Hollywood Hills through the neighborhood and out to Ballona Creek.
The dramatic entrance: Architect Dan Brunn imagined the door as a “hug” to embrace and bring people into the home. , but his discovery that the foundation wasn’t as good as he thought opened the opportunity to think differently. In keeping with his principles,He would honor nature by building a home that made full use of the water, the sun and the land.This eco-consciousness was something Brunn grew up with. As a child in Tel Aviv, his showers were fueled by a passive-energy water heater.
The home’s living area features double height ceilings with clerestory windows and skylights enlivened by a living wall.
