The Veneklasen House. Kenneth Lind & Pierre Koenig, 1951

---

A masterpiece of Mid century Modernism, The Veneklasen House was completed in 1951 by architect Kenneth Lind with Modernist maestro Pierre Koenig, famous for his Case Study Houses (#21 and #22); Koenig put a significant mark on the structure, most notably the living room with its distinctive accordion-fold glass wall. Situated up a private drive, off Mandeville Canyon Road, the residence is unassuming and discrete, accessed via a gated front courtyard; it underwent a comprehensive renovation in the period of 2019-2021 when Los Angeles-based firm, Chu-Gooding Architects, executed a masterful restoration and expansion plan, for which it won the 2022 AIA LA Award for historic preservation.
