LA-based furniture design studio Willett has worked with interior design and development studio Ome Dezin to reimagine a 1960s residence in the hills of Laurel Canyon.
Ome Dezin principals Jesse Rudolph and Joelle Kutner partnered with Willett to execute his vision for furniture on a larger, more holistic scale during the restoration and renovation of the 2,920-square-foot (271-square-metre) CM G1 House.

The slatted front doors are one of many custom designs that Willett created for the CM G1 House
As well as cultivating a distinct atmosphere, the full gut remodel aimed to improve the flow between the spaces and better connect them to the outdoors and natural surroundings.
"The bold, sensual, and cohesive transformation honours the home's origins while introducing a distinctly modern vitality," said the team.

Several of Willett's existing designs also feature in the home, including the hourglass-shaped Radi Table and Dining Chairs
Throughout the property, warm Douglas fir was applied to reference the mid-century era and sliding glass doors connect the interior to the lush garden.
Willett created multiple custom elements for the house, ranging from the slatted front door and study desk, to an expansive built-in system in the primary bedroom that incorporates a desk, daybed and storage.

今年早些时候,设计师在一场火灾中失去了自己的家,之后他在 The Future Perfect 的一个群展上展出了几件他曾为自己家设计的家具。
其中几件作品也出现在了 CM G1住宅中,包括圆柱形桌腿的 Tonn 桌和 Gio 凳,沙漏形的 Radi 桌椅,以及亮红色的 Popo 椅。
The designer lost his home in Altadena during the devastating fires earlier this year, and afterwards exhibited several pieces of furniture he had designed for its spaces as part of a group show at The Future Perfect.
Several of these pieces are featured in the CM G1 House, including the cylindrical-legged Tonn Table and Gio Stool, the hourglass-shaped Radi Table and Chairs, and the glossy red Popo Chair.

与这些作品一同亮相的,还有 Willett 的 Early Works: Group 01 系列中的新增作品——皮革材质的 Poporo 餐椅、Popo 吧台凳和 KOC 梳妆台——这些作品在该项目中首次亮相,并将于今年春季正式发布。
团队表示:“对于 CM G1 住宅,Willett设想了一个完整的设计生态系统:一个从布局到家具,每一个元素都反映了独特且高雅的观点的地方。”
These are joined by new additions to Willet's Early Works: Group 01 collection – the leather Poporo dining chair, Popo counter stools, and the KOC Dresser – that are debuting in this project before launching this spring.
"For the CM G1 House, [Willett] envisioned a complete design ecosystem: a place where every element, from the layout to the furniture, reflects a singular, elevated point of view," said the team.
▲ 主卧室中出现了更多的定制家具,构成了一张书桌、储物空间和一张沙发床
More custom furniture appears in the primary bedroom, forming a desk, storage and a day bed
Tying the spaces together, black flagstones cover the floor in the entryway and repeat across the kitchen, dining area and study, then extend out to the back yard.
Dark marble forms countertops and backsplashes in the kitchen and bathrooms, and lines the door frames, providing a visual counterpoint to the extensive millwork.

同样,客厅中一个经过翻新的转角壁炉壁炉边饰和炉床,在木质饰面之间提供了焦点。
深绿色和泥土色调贯穿整个空间,而一间浴室则铺设了蓝色方形瓷砖,形成对比。
一个衣柜被通顶的镜子包裹,镜面被一条双色木板组成的水平带打断,门把手则以微小的立方体形式融入其中。
各个房间还增设了天窗,引入更多的自然光。
Similarly, a refurbished corner fireplace surround and hearth provides a focal point between wood surfaces in the living area.
Deep greens and earthy hues carry through the spaces, while a bathroom is lined in blue square tiles as a moment of contrast.
A closet is wrapped in floor-to-ceiling mirrors interrupted by a horizontal band of two-tone wood panels that incorporate the door handles as tiny cubes.
Skylights were also introduced in various rooms to bring in additional natural light.

Ome Dezin curated the selection of remaining furnishings and objects from local antique store DEN, along with carpets from artist Scarlett Rouge's Whispers collection for CC-Tapis.
"The home embraces the natural setting and channels the creative spirit of the community, long cherished by artists and musicians," said the team. "The result is a private, architectural retreat that feels intentional, fresh, and serene."
