A Modern Hacienda — The "Rustic Canyon" house. A home where light moves like a living thing, where architecture dissolves into nature, and where history meets innovation. Designed by Noah Walker of Walker Workshop, this modern hacienda in Rustic Canyon is a masterful blend of timeless warmth and contemporary simplicity a residence so compelling it has been featured in premier architectural and design publications, including Architectural Digest France, The Local Project, EST Living, World Architecture Design, Dezeen, and Denizen Magazine. The floor plan unfolds in four wings, each serving a distinct purpose: a primary suite, a children’s wing, a guest suite with a theater, and a service wing with a garage. At the center, a glass-enclosed living and kitchen space acts as a light box, capturing the shifting glow of the sun throughout the day. There is never a moment when the home isn’t illuminated in a magical way. The 15-foot-high kitchen ceiling, a true cathedral of gathering, is bathed in natural light and looks out to a grove of melaleuca trees. The primary suite, a sanctuary of calm, features a floating ceiling and a skylight that opens to the branches of a majestic coastal live oak. The smooth stucco exterior, softened by thoughtful shifts in height, creates moments where nature and architecture intertwine. Walker Workshop also served as general contractor, handcrafting key elements like the aluminum window system and custom furniture. Interior design by Lisa Petrazzolo, with art curated by Creative Art Partners, adds to the home’s refined aesthetic. More than a residence, this is a living experience a seamless dialogue between light, texture, and time, set within one of LA’s most storied and verdant enclaves.
