The dramatic knife-edge pool, illuminated with color-changing LED lights, is undoubtedly one of the most
striking, wow factors, as it hugs every curve of the home. It is virtually a kinetic work of art connecting
earth and sky and the interior with the exterior. One can quite literally step from the living area through a
sliding wall of glass and into the water.
Perched in the exclusive Bird Streets neighborhood of the Hollywood Hills, the 6,000-square-foot
Bluejay residence was completely re-imagined to maximize the site's sweeping Los Angeles views while
reflecting the homeowner's trendsetting lifestyle. The open-plan great room includes a living area and
a long wraparound bar that is made for communal seating and entertaining. Behind the bar, a vertical
stainless steel wine refrigerator extends all the way to the ceiling, thus providing a seamless way to
solve for the lack of a wine room in the home. The LED lighting underneath the countertops echoes the
mood of the pool yet again uniting the indoor and outdoor spaces.
While the property sits directly on the street, a walled-in entry sequence creates a sense of drama and
privacy while setting the tone for the rest of the space. The limestone pathway, lit from underneath,
appears to be floating as it entrancingly guides the way to the front door.
