SOLD: Lemke Residence by Jennifer Luce
SOLD: Lemke Residence by Jennifer Luce
The Lemke Residence (2006) by Jennifer Luce, FAIA (who remodeled this 1961 home) is for sale by its commissioning client. Come witness contemporary minimalism at its best – with attention to detail and material selection the architect’s award-winning firm, Luce et Studio, is recognized for. The New York Times noted the home’s ocean view and how it draws in an abundance of natural light through expansive windows; as well as the architect's inventive use of exposed concrete floors, and detailing in weathered zinc, hot rolled steel, lacquered wood and counters of honeycomb polycarbonate. Situated high atop Mount Soledad, the glass walls engage spectacular views to the north towards the Torrey Pines Mesa and west to the Pacific Ocean.

Mills, Mansfield Residence
Mills, Mansfield Residence
In 2000, Modernism Rediscoverd author Pierluigi Serraino wrote, “…Three rectangular volumes of different lengths are arranged around an open court. The centerpiece houses a large living room while the side elements contain the sleeping quarters, a carport and outdoor dining area. The same configuration of the roof section sweeps along a U-shaped path to generate a different canopy for each of the three volumes of the residence. In the middle section, the rafters extend above the centerline to top a double-height window wall facing the front yard. On the street front, a concrete block wall fences an outdoor patio zoned with planting and reflective pool. Some of the blocks slide out of the masonry line to provide built-in planters. Once inside the residential enclosure, the high middle roof slopes down toward the horizon of the Pacific Ocean, changing the scale of the project.”

SOLD: Prefabricated House by William Kesling
William Kesling’s designs of the late 1940s were conservative wood and brick houses with trellises and patios. Along with his design for the Jamar Dining Room restaurant, several of his La Jolla projects of this period were photographed by Julius Shulman including the row of beach houses on the east side of Dowling Drive which were reportedly nicknamed by the LA Times as Kesling's Kozy Kowsheds.
