@davidnettosays bought Richard Neutra’s Ohara House in 2003. Neutra’s design uses monumental sliders that open up to connect the view from the interior garden to Silver Lake Reservoir to convey the ultimate fantasy of California modernism: that one is living outdoors. The sound of water from fountains in both front and back reinforces that impression. Inside, Netto pursued a direction that is more European and less “mid-century orthodox” than he had seen done in these houses before. ​Photography by @francoishalard.
