Sited against the hills, and taking advantage of
the canyon vistas and topography, this recently
renovated 1923 residence with three bedrooms
and two bathrooms showcases Spanish Revival
architecture with Mediterranean influences. The
seamless transition between the indoor living
spaces and the outdoor entertaining areas allow
for an open and airy flow.

Amenities include: ebony stained hardwood floor-


ing, recessed lighting, central heating and air
conditioning, updated plumbing and electrical
systems, stainless steel appliances, dark stained
and pre-distressed reclaimed cabinetry, extra
thick Carrara marble slab kitchen counters with
dual sinks, in-ceiling sound system, video moni-
tored alarm system, pitched and coved ceilings
with hand-carved beams, indoor and outdoor
fireplaces, outdoor garden lighting and two water
features.

Plastered cove ceilings, spiral col-
umns framing the fireplace, vaulted
arches and wrought iron finishes are
other traditional Spanish Revival
features. A hand-hammered Moroc-
can inspired half dome chandelier
crowns the family room.

The loggia, which also opens off this


room, is an all-weather, all-seasons
outdoor living area.

“It is fun for us to imagine what a
house looked like when it was
originally built and try to restore
it.” – Ryan Brown, designer

Spanish Revival refers to the architectural style which was seen


from approximately 1915 to1940 throughout Southern California,
Texas and Florida. Like Mission Revival, Spanish Revival was
influenced by Spanish Colonial architecture of earlier centuries.
Spanish Revival, however, was more ornate with stylistic detail
apparent in both large features and small, such as intricately pat-
terned tile work and wrought iron hardware. Both of these ele-
ments are found at 8061 Woodland Lane.

Spanish Revival is an extremely eclectic style. Many Mediterra-


nean touches are combined to create an exotic, but harmonious
appearance. Influences include Spanish Baroque, Moorish and
Gothic elements. Tile roofs and stucco exteriors are characteristic
with half rounded doors and windows. Elaborate tile work, applied
relief ornamentation and wrought iron grillwork is used to create
frames around doorways and windows and is used widely as
decorative accents throughout the house. Towers and columns
are often seen as are balustrades, cantilevered balconies, cov-
ered porches, and arcaded walkways. Front entrances were often
highly ornamented and many were balanced by a commanding
triple-arched focal window.

Arched windows and doors define the
formal dining room, which overlooks
the living area and outdoor gardens.
Hand carved wood beams frame the
pitched ceiling. Diffused lighting illu-
minates this space through a Moroc-
can inspired chandelier.

“Open shelving
becomes this
multi-use, hori-
zontal surface
for accessories
and items that
you’re likely to
use on a daily
basis.”
- Ryan Brown, designer

A richly variegated tile floor using San


Felipe concrete pavers from Arto Brick
was chosen for the kitchen and second
bathroom. Different shades of terra-
cotta were applied to avoid the uniform
look of a new floor.

Adhering to the Spanish Revival


theme, dark stained reclaimed or pre-
distressed cabinetry was used together
with extra thick Carrara marble slab
counters.

This modern interpretation of the
galley kitchen allows for ease of
function and for entertaining.

White Caesar stone counters and


stainless steel appliances together
with a combination of wenge stained
and white Italian cabinetry provides
a visual interest.

The living space extends to the


private patio through the floor to
ceiling sliding doors.

A combination of sea grass and sisal
flooring was utilized in the media
room, which can also function as a
third bedroom. While the fibers are
durable, the textures provide relaxed
comfort underfoot.

Dual doors lead to one of many out-


door patios overlooking the mature
foliage.

The center bathroom includes dual vanities and a combination
bathtub and shower. The off-white cotton drapes which frame
the shower provide a sense of intimacy and retreat.

One of two outdoor water fea-
tures is seen here through the
double doors off the master
bedroom. The neutral color
palette allows the outdoors to
become the artwork.

All rooms have an in-ceiling


sound system and recessed
lighting.
