a clothing closet are integrated into this.
“We set the clean-lined custom vanity in the
middle of the space so the owners can still take
in the views while using it. The vanity has a
light, floating quality – accentuated by a reveal
under the countertop.”
The bathroom follows an L-shape, with the
shower area off in an arm of its own. The double

shower is designed with a seating area between
each zone and, as with the rest of the bathroom,
can be completely opened up to the terrace.
The ensuite also continues the use of large
terrazzo stone found throughout the home. As
with the nano glass, this offers a reflective surface, adding to the white, bright aesthetic.
“However, generous overhangs and a white
motorised curtain bring control over the sun,”
says Mungall. “In a sense, the inside bathroom
is only part of the ensuite. This end section
of the terrace includes a sculptural fire pit – a
lovely way to dry off in the open air.”

bathroom lets downtown Hollywood
views take centre stage. Toilets,
storage and a clothing closet are all
set into the rear wall, so that nothing
comes between the occupant and
the outlook.

bathroom, the shower zone opens
directly onto the expansive terrace.
