Home and school design in La Crescenta
Foothill homes and a kindergarten in La Crescenta-Montrose
Send requestLa Crescenta sits in the foothills above Glendale, about twenty minutes from our Burbank studio. Our work here includes Lumiere, a family home in a soft French style, and a kindergarten in La Crescenta-Montrose that is open and running.
Lumiere
A family home in a soft French style
Lumiere has light stone walls, a dark tile roof, an arched oak front door and clipped shrubs along a stone path. In the backyard there is a long dining table under a wood pergola, an outdoor kitchen with a fireplace and a pool.
Kindergarten
A yard made for children
For a kindergarten in La Crescenta-Montrose we designed the front of the building and the whole play yard: a wooden castle with a slide, a sandbox, a playhouse, a painted road for bikes and long tables under pergolas for drawing and lunch outside.
Permits
County or city
Most of La Crescenta-Montrose is unincorporated Los Angeles County, so permits go through LA County Building and Safety; addresses inside the City of Glendale go through Glendale. Homes on the foothill slopes often sit in Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zones, which affects materials and landscaping.
