Amazing Indoor-Outdoor Architecture Near Venice Beach

- In designing a home for one of Venice’s typically long and narrow lots, Ehrlich recalled lessons he’d learned from the local architecture of Nigeria and the courtyard layout of houses in the medinas in Morocco. He calls his approach “multicultural modernism.” The result is a house that takes advantage of the climate and that uses natural systems and technology to boost the home’s efficiency.

It's like living in a piece of art
*‘Ehrlich’ means ‘honest’ in German .... one can feel the authenticity of the man! It doesn’t get any better than this!!!* _Brilliant!!_
Beautiful design. I love how eclectic it is, yet it all works together.
so everyone will ignore the sentence, "we want to preserve the trees because they were here first"? what a beautiful line.
No paint. No air conditioning. But they hv 3 cute cats.
Thank you Architect Steven for sharing yr modernist architecture home with the world.
My favourite design as it is blended nicely with the natures and so environmental friendly.
Amazing architecture.
Awesome home owners.
Finally a colourful house! Beautiful work.. 👌
Exactly how I would love to build homes:for everyone.
Master overall design. Inside and out. Really like the exoskeleton and interesting surfaces. Perfect.
Great example of brilliant architecture in a village by the beach, perfection.
So impressed, I watched it four times. Love that it has no paint. I wish I could have seen the powder room, and master bedroom.
To me, it’s breathtakingly beautiful!
Wonderful ideas and execution , the culmination of a lifetime obvioisly of all his best multicultural experiences and ideas. MY husband who was a builder and I, in retirement, went to the former Colonial capital of Central America while we were cruising on our sailboat. WE lived for 6 mos with a local family in an authentic Spanish colonial courtyard centered home next to the most beautiful 16th century church there....we fell in love with the town, the family, their friends , the social life, the year round spring climate, the tropically planted courtyard centric homes, everything about the place. Later we sold the boat bought an existing house with views,of the surrounding volcanoes and went to,work designing and building our dream home. IT is in keeping with the Spanish colonial locale....mahogany and cedar solid cabinets and woodwork throughout, all local materials, enormous wall,of arched glass windows on the upper,level to bring the views in....deep terraces for outdoor living providing a large outdoor living room in front of a traditional two, fountained Spanish Mudejar courtyard. I did the drawings and the decorative tile and mural painting . My husband hired and managed the construction team. It took us seven years to complete, living on site with an average of 4 workers....A similar house in California would have cost us millions. I planned the garden having had some university training in garden design.....Aside from being highland coffee finca country, this once was the largest cut rose exporting region in the Americas right here, so the volcanic soil is perfect and we were still able to get the stock for a Spanish style rose and tropical plant garden. It is bliss....the culmination of our lives and to be here with people who have become our family is a privilege beyond compare. So,I understand deeply, in my soul,what this house means to him. WHat a wonderful thing to have achieved....and the indoor,outdoor esthetic is such a happy way to live at one with nature...a paradise!
I've heard the phrase "lifestyle porn" before. Didn't know what it meant until now. Wow! What a beautiful home and the couple just seem so amazing and thoughtful. I am trying to get ideas for what I want my home to look like. This is an amazing video!
I'm becoming obsessed with semi courtyards. Indoor spaces that seamlessly meld with outdoor spaces. To be in your living room and be sitting outside at the same time is incredible.
From all the houses , this one is the best for me. That tree and big window wow amazing . The beautiful small pool the multiple windows the colors .
This is one of the most beautifully uniquely designed homes I’ve ever seen. The innovation, detail, global influence and use of space texture and material is simply devine. What talent he has! I’m definitely watching this multiple times for inspiration.
I've watched this video so many times already, and I keep coming back. I just love this house!
When he said "no paint" I started really paying attention
I love this house! There’s so much personality, harmony, and wholesomeness throughout the spaces. Salut Steven.
this video has had a significant influence on my life
I want to be an architect by just watching this! They transform art into real life!
Simple and beautiful. Native American of SoCal. Nicely done.
I met him once when he was giving a lecture in Melbourne Uni. Nice person who emphasise on material honesty and a true believer in the courtyard house. I even had him signed my copy of his book. I always use this house as an example of composition of elements of design.
of all the random house videos I keep watching, I like this house the most. Modern, happy, and bright.
A designer and an idealist... it's reflective of all his own personal experiences, his enabling visitors, his family and himself to take a journey/ revisit his life/ work/ passions/ treasured memories of his personal liveable album and his done so with practically, function not just aesthetics.
IM super impressed with their art collection and use of materials and colour. It's clear that they're rolling in the dough. The indoor outdoor play is magnificient. Thank you for doing this feature.
In typical Venice Beach fashion, gorgeous
A space that honours the trees that were there before they came in. And beautifully executed!
I love their home and will incorporate some of the elements in my own home.
There aren't many houses that I could just move into and live in it comfortably and just happy looking at the surroundings. This is definitively a house where I'd be very comfortable :)
This was so artfully filmed -- and without the style getting in the way. And I loved the details about the cement blocks and the choice of materials and finishes.
I visited this house when Dwell organized house tours throughout Venice Beach and Santa Monica. It was my favorite and feels like a real home that seamlessly connects indoor and outdoor space. It is very private from the street which reminded me of homes I visited in Marakesh. Steve Erlich is an amazing architect!
MUST SAY , BOTH OF YOU ARE AMAZING AND LUCKY TO LIVE IN YOUR DREAM HOUSE
Colours 😍😍😍😍😍
After watching so many minimalistic contemporary bel air /beverly hills houses
my eyes were almost dry
This house has so much character and warmth! It blends history with modernity while respecting nature. Kudos!
This is wildly crafted and insanely furnished. I'm taken aback. The features are dramatic and beautiful.
Not usually a fan of ultra-modern homes, but this house is well designed and beautiful. Job well done, Ehrlich!
Boy is this home a treasure. Love the meticulous details such as the craftsman's notes on the steel pole, "do not paint." This home has soul. Plus, hello? These trees are the centerpiece. Bravo.
I love this house. Using the trees as part of the home instead of cutting them down.
This house looks so warm and cozy
This house might be my favorite of all time. Only thing missing is it needs to be transported to a beach somewhere, or a cliff overlooking an ocean...but goodness gracious PERFECT combination of in/out!
Very nice design.. there is an open flow of energy inside the house..
this house is : work and talent. very breathable, very cozy.
This is first time am providing a comment publicly. This place is really soo lovely. Awesome. :)
holy crap... well that was just about the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. Multicultural modernism as a way to reflect a culmination of diverse personal experiences into modern architecture. Beautiful.
This house is divine. I love that his wife added softness to the house with the furniture. Such a good combo.
Forget the house - I hope to be as HEALTHY and HAPPY as these people seem to be at their age!
This is definitely the best well designed house which i have ever seen in my entire life. Never too much but never too less so this modernist building looks not cold but beautiful and vibrant. The architect did amazing job!
"...preserve the trees, because... they were here first." Good point! Love it!
It's perfectly designed. Cozy and warm and open, all at the same time. Spaces are flexible. The flow of air is incredible. Perfect play of colours whilst not going over the top. Especially the courtyard and trees blended with pool just puts you in that naturist space when one gets up in the morning. I loved two of the furniture concepts. The glass table in main hall with lots of books underneath it and the dining table with those benches giving you unrestricted access to whole table and simplifying your motion. Just perfect.
I love the inner courtyards and the openness of the whole space, even though you still managed to have private space. Thanks for sharing your beautiful home with us. Shukran.
I just love this house. They look warm and friendly and it shows in this space. Now all I need is a lottery win and where do I sign!
This is built with passion. Its like your own beautfil artwork.
I am absolutely in love with everything about this house 😍😍😍
This maybe the best house that I have seen.
Yep, I’ll say it . These people live outside - and grab beautiful bits of artistic shade
now and again
🌳 Wonder-Full 🌱
This man is a genius really. How gorgeous is his design and he gets to live in it!
I love it!!!
Especially the huge windows in relation to the highlights of the house such as the trees and the pool.
Also the openness created by the use of transparency for bridge.
Last, but not least the sincere use of materials.
What a fantastic creation.
WOW. IT'S LIVING INSIDE AN ARTWORK! I don't generally like colors but this is harmonious, functional, interesting, tastful!
I am currently doing my 2nd year in Architecture. I'm doing a project on a shop house and this house has been my inspiration since everr. I really want to design something influenced by this beautiful residence ❤️
Best design i ve seen so far,,i like it so much that i keep on watching again n again,,
Wow.. just wow... I would love to design my own house even though I'm not an architect!
Really thinking about making a tiny house to keep myself dept free to survive my mid 20's and 30's ;p
Roy Wardenaar It'd be worth the investment! Also, you dont have to be an architect to design a house :)
Roy Wardenaar that's really a good idea me too I'm in my teens but I could make it for my 20s sure is a great experience to travel in my country (:
absolutely, all you need to do is to feel the space and adapt it.
This house really is an outstanding design merging both form and function. It has real character, and it looks sophisticated without seeming to be pretentious and sterile. I love it.
feels like a very genuine home- from the owners to the design. nothing was forced. not pretentious at all. now am off to find my courtyard house and my condo will be inspired by your multicultural modernism
I enjoy his descriptions. Love the tree court idea.
There’s so much beauty on simplicity and the fact that you don’t try to
Please others instead you just please what you love ❤️, that’s it
This has got to be the most beautiful home I've ever seen
This is still one of my favorite house! I keep coming back to watch this video
Wow! This home is so beautiful and the stories behind it made it more special.
I love the shelfs under the stairs! Gorgeous concrete for the fireplace.
Wow!!! I LOVE this house and the indoor/outdoor connection.
Absolutely breathtaking especially when it’s so eclectic, love it!
This is the perfect visualisation of my dream house. It looks unreal! ❤️
So beautiful n the colour so nice. Such a stunning decor.😍😍😍😍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻I haven’t really found the most appropriate words to describe my feelings about the house. Just no words is good enough to describe it. The tree is like a picture on the wall, it blend so well. Imagine sitting there n look out of the house. What a view!
The indoor/outdoor combination is amazing. A true masterpiece. Love it!
Gorgeous and tranquil home. Beautiful!
This design communicates maturity in so many ways, i love it.
Wow!!!! What an amazing house and property. I just love this whole design. It’s architecture, it’s design, but not cold as many homes that are “over designed” are. You know, more like showrooms that are just there to impress people. This house oozes warm colorful personality, a home that is lived in. You can clearly see what’s important to Steven Ehrich and his wife, instead of “what does people want to see if they visit me”. I love trees, and my dream is to build a house on a property with old majestically trees , just like this guy did. I just love how they designed The Whole build around those trees. I love the “multicultural modernism”. That’s just my style. It’s sort of a bohemian meets design outlook. You can clearly see how he designed the house and she warmed it up with her bohemian comfortable style, and of course his treasures from traveling around the world. One of the things I loved and found made this home so personal was all the photos on the kitchen walls. I wish you could show us more of this home
I have always been wanting to become an architect, and actually lost hope of becoming one ever since I started IB last August 2016. This video really inspired me, and pushed me more to become an architect all over again. Thank you so much.
I didn't go for architecture because of my high school mentor who said there is no good living in architecture because the Chicago market is over saturated. As much as like what I do, this is the biggest regret of my life. If you have passion and determination for what you do, you'll enjoy it and you'll find a way to make it work.
Same😁😁😁
I see a lot of random houses on the internet and this is now #1
Stunning home. So much depth and symbolism was incorporated into the design.
I love, love, love this house. It has many elements that I'd like in my own dream house.
I can see his spirit in the space... sooo lovely
Such a beautiful house. It has everything that I love, in it. From the walls and stairs, to the outdoor and indoor spaces. Those trees are magnificent !
I just love it all. ♥️
This is an insanely beautiful house.
Amazing design! Just perfect!
Wow this house looks so beautiful 🙌💚
So inspiring...love the courtyard design and the entire philosophy of design that is so beautifully articulated in the space.
I am preserving this in my vault DEFINITELY. So many good anecdotes to remember.
A perfect balance between: cozy, contemporary, geometric composition and materials. My congratulations architect! As an architect, would like a home like this.....
omg its my dream house!! i found this house in a magazine here in new zealand and fell in love.. i never threw the magazine out because it really embodies the house i wanted.. i'm glad to have seen it in video form
This home is a visual masterpiece! 😍
Love this. Speaks to my architecture heart.
I'm in love with this home. It speaks to me in so many ways.
I love the open feeling along with modern classic look.
First thought. Gorgeous! Second thought. Bugs! Do they not have mosquitoes in Venice? I love this house! And hadn’t heard the phrase “courtyard house” before. I love it. I’ve been day dreaming about such a house but in my mind it was more of an “atrium house” where there would be an open space for every inside space. Again the trouble is bugs! But I really love the entire house encompasses the lot. I have a large yard but only the dogs enjoy it.
Also I’d love for this to be off grid as possible and the architecture to be part of the heating and cooling. Like his exoskeleton shades that block light. But maybe clay walls that hold the heat in the winter and block the heat in summer. Use up drafts for dispelling heat, and using the outdoor space not just for entertainment but also to grow food, be it living walls of vegetables, hydroponic gardening, to save ground space.
Amazing. Love the way it connects with nature and the nice mixture of multi-culture design & colors.
I love passing through the houses in Venice beach
It’s home ! Anywhere you look it’s so pleasing to the Eye !
