920 FOOTHILL RD, BEVERLY HILLS CA 90210

Just barely over a year ago I sold this incredible A. Quincy Jones Architectural Masterpiece Sited On More Than 35,000 Sq ft Lot In Prime Beverly Hills Location Hidden Away From The Public Eye Up A Long Private Gated Driveway. It is a Dynamic Post-And-Beam Modernist Residence that reflects the mastery of it's mid-century architect. Since personally I am an architectural purist, this extraordinary home with it's soaring ceilings, Towering Floor to Ceiling Windows, clean lines, and grand volume is one of my favorite in LA! It was purchased last year by a well know architectural enthusiast and preservationist who has done a relatively simple and harmonious remodel and update without disturbing the period details and integrity of the structure and design. Today this home can be yours for $11,995,000.- Markus

Architect Ron Radziner Sells His Own Venice House For $4.4MM

"Rarely does one get the opportunity to own an architect's own home, especially one as marvelous and celebrated as Ron Radziner's (of Marmol Radziner) in Venice. The warm modern design of the Vienna Way residence was highlighted by deep wood tones and shades of grey. The four bedroom, four bathroom, two structure modern home is connected by a large kitchen and is separated by a lap pool. It recently sold for $4.4 M, which I think was a steal of a deal." -Markus
 




Curbed LA: 
Architect Ron Radziner of the excellent local firm Marmol Radziner has sold the house he built for his own family in 2007, reports the Wall Street Journal. The Vienna Way Residence has four bedrooms, four bathrooms, floor-to-ceiling glazed walls, custom furniture, a pool, a green roof, and outdoor living areas with fireplaces (Marmol Radziner was also the landscape architect on the project, according to ArchDaily). It's made up of two main structures connected by a sunken kitchen--at the front, a one-story space houses a great room; the back structure has "more casual, private spaces, including a family room and an office on the first floor and bedrooms on the second floor."
