Common Ground:Multifamily Housing in Los Angeles

glass house

Classic tropical villa home where almost every square foot of the L-shaped home is floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the gorgeously manicured backyard with pool. You can’t get more of a glass house than that except for maybe a glass roof. The straight lines are tempered with huge jutting round wing which looks really cool. It’s hard to tell whether the entire design would be better off all straight lines. Fascinating geo-shaped house with loads of glass whee the remaining sides/roof is a grass roof.

Photos of Spectacular Glass Houses

There are two separate views you get from the home, including the view of the mountain, while the second view is that of the garden that overlooks the lake. No matter where you look out of the home, there is a gorgeous, unobstructed view through the glass windows that give you endless amounts of natural light throughout the home. This house is a beautiful example of modern glass homes.

Modernist glass houses with incredible design and architecture

Now that’s a lot of glass plus a very cool grass roof. Small glass home where most of the exterior facade is essentially glass walls supported by black supports. This is a rendering of the home, but I like the fact it’s small; not huge like so many others featured here. Modern steel and glass mansion with 3 stories of glass that stretches nearly the entire length of this massive home designed by Grupo Arquitectura. Modern glass, wood and stone home nestled in the forest built to blend into the surrounding landscape. If you like modern homes with lots of glass and windows, you’ll love this extensive collection.

It is now owned by the National Trust for Historic Preservation and is open to the public for guided tours, which begin at a visitors center at 199 Elm Street in New Canaan. A new book from Phaidon (Glass Houses, October 2023) features 50 such homes and celebrates stunning feats of architectural wonder that engage glass in thoughtful and compelling ways. The ingenious idea behind the design of Engawa House in Chile, created by architects Santiago Valdivieso and Stefano Rolla, is to surround the glass house with an outer layer of slatted Chilean Raulí wood. This offers privacy inside while allowing panoramic views; while for the distant observer, the slats – which slide on rollers – allow the property to meld into the surrounding vegetation.

They decided on a glass house tower home so that they could enjoy the views of the city, but also wanted it private. They came up with the idea to use a system of moveable louvres which they had made out of cypress wood. The home owner wanted open and spacious, with lots of territory to move about. There are three bedrooms, a kitchen, open living quarters and spa-like bathroom. The views from the inside include ocean views and beautiful scenery of the yard, where this homeowner’s dog loves to play. A beautifully crafted glass home that boasts of a contemporary design style.

A list of glass houses wouldn’t be complete without at least one Airbnb in Malibu which is why we’ve chosen this lovely three-bedroom, three-bath Airbnb to include on our list. Corner glass windows make a remarkable impression even before you step foot in the house as does the Jacques Tati-style water feature. Decorated in a sleek, modern minimalism, this striking property offers amenities that are not always that obvious until you experience them. Like an art gallery/house hybrid, this five-bedroom, five-and-a-half bath Marina del Rey beach house has something interesting to look at in every corner. Sleeping ten, this Airbnb is just a block away from the beach and overlooks the famous Venice canals which, seen through the floor-to-ceiling windows, are like a piece of art themselves.

On the main level you will be in awe at the views you have all around you that put you right in the heart of nature. The living room is on the first floor, and a staircase runs through the core of the home through the entire height of the building to get to storage closets. It was also designed with bathrooms on all the floors and you have a dumbwaiter for moving things easily from floor-to-floor. Inside, you’ll find exotic wood, stainless steel, and natural stone for a contemporary style of living. Other features include, indoor salt water pool, wine cellar, digital home theatre, a library and much more. The home was designed by Colorado Mountain Site 7 Solutions and is a magnificent example of glass home living.

This particular one is an example of their style and as you can see it incorporates plenty of glass. It also doesn’t mean glass is the only exterior material (as in 100% glass). To qualify for this post a house had to have significant glass for the exterior whether entire walls or large windows (and many of them). The “room” with the greatest privacy is the bedroom, which also contains a small desk. It is separated from the living room by a series of built-in storage cabinets with walnut veneer.

The property, created as a family home, is built on a steep incline above the Pacific Ocean, with one end of the house at ground level and the other raised on metal stilts. With all the modern architecture in the area, it’s kind of great to see a relic of what used to be so profuse in this area and this Hermosa Beach Airbnb is a great example of that. Once featured on the cover of “Home” magazine, this Hermosa Beach Airbnb surely has more magazine covers in its future. Just 500 yards from the beach, this house features not only enormous windows that face the outside but playful window features inside as well. This glass tower home is not only an example of how to be creative with a small lot, but to be creative with designing a work of art for a home.
