Project Overview

Banyan Treehouse, Mandeville Canyon, Los Angeles USA

Located on a high eastern-facing ridge with views downtown Los Angeles in the distance, the Banyan Treehouse is a diminutive art studio and sanctuary.

Rockefeller Partners was originally commissioned by this client to design a house that was ultimately never realized. Working together once again on this project, architect and client were able to revisit some of the design elements that they had originally explored in a different context, such as the striking butterfly roofline.

Serving both as a studio and as a guest accomodation, the tree house is completely selfsufficient with a water closet, fireplace, refrigerator, daybed and television.
Outside, a quick walk down the stairs leads to a protected outdoor shower.
