Houzz Tour: Pursuing the Good Outdoor Life in Palos Verdes
When Pritzkat & Johnson Architects was updating a 1950s ranch house on the Palos Verdes Peninsula in Los Angeles, they naturally looked to outdoor spaces — the neighborhood enjoys sunshine for three-quarters of the year. They refinished the existing patio, added a deck off the master bedroom and built a shaded outdoor sitting area, giving their clients plenty of opportunities for al fresco life.
Location: Palos Verdes area of Los Angeles
Size: 2,800 square feet (260 square meters); 4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms
Year built: 1953; renovation completed in 2012
The deck and covered seating area added 180 square feet of functional and cozy living space. The louvered shutters open for access to the crawl space under the house, while the poured concrete benches offer outdoor seating. Recessed lights illuminate the space at night.
