A Midcentury Home Packed With Next-Gen Tech Is Up for $2.8M in L.A.

"When architect Jim Weiner found this house, it was a diamond in the rough," says listing agent Brian Linder. "But he recognized the potential this jewel offered, keeping the good bones of the house and introducing a new kitchen, bathrooms, and other finishes in a sensitive and thoughtful manner. Inspired by the architecture of A. Quincy Jones, Whitney Smith, and Edgardo Contini, the original post-and-beam construction, tongue-and-groove ceilings, stacked bond fireplace, and floor-to-ceiling glass remain intact. Drawing on his environmental design expertise, the architect also provided a strong ecological sensibility to the project, with solar panels, an electric car charger, a rainwater collection system, and nontoxic cork and Marmoleum floors throughout. The result is a cohesive composition that is not only beautiful, but green."

By combining traditional vertical grain Douglas fir, redwood, and cherry with contemporary stone, stainless steel, and metal materials, this modern home has become more in tune with contemporary building technology and design culture."

"On the outskirts of Arraiolos, in the historic, hilltop Alentejo town, we discovered this beautiful quinta with an architectural project developed to create a boutique tourism project with guest suites, a restaurant gallery, event space and workshop," say listing agents at Fantastic Frank. "The quinta was originally built as a farm in the 1920s by a collective of entrepreneurial farmers who decided to build a pasta factory to earn greater profit from the wheat they produced. The location, just on the main road out of Arraiolos, is an hour-drive from Lisbon, making the property a great base to explore the Alentejo region."
