joining a recently completed guest house on a site which contains over 100 oak trees, this dwelling by walker workshop provides luxury living accommodation across two storeys. located in beverly hills, the 8,000 square foot residence appears much smaller owing to the way the building’s concrete walls are integrated into the existing landscape. a 75 foot (23 meter) swimming pool, with infinity edges on three of its four sides, bisects the house and slips below one of the largest oaks on the property. internally, the scheme’s ‘upside-down’ program sees public spaces positioned above the bedrooms, which are buried into the hill beneath a green roof of edible herbs.
