Piller Residence
Residential renovation and addition for the former producer and writer of the Star Trek television and film syndicate is located in the historic downtown Los Angeles historic neighborhood of Hancock Park.
Design
The original 1910 Tudor residence was lovingly restored and an addition including an extensive formal dining room and dining deck, game and media room, billiards room and pool bath/sauna were included at the rear of the home.
The entire backyard was transformed into a tropical paradise including landscaped gardens and fruit orchard, formal rose garden, bubbling stream and waterfall. An organically shaped black-bottomed lap pool fed by Jacuzzi overflow further spills over an infinity wall into a catch pool.
Comprehensive site planning included the landscaping of the backyard to incorporate a jacuzzi, pool, spa, and reworking historic and meandering Longwood Creek as it passes through the property.
Completed in 1992.
