Hidden behind layers of lush tropical foliage, Obsidian House emerges as a private sanctuary shaped by elemental contrast and quiet strength. Clad in charred Shou Sugi Ban wood and volcanic lava stone, the residence feels as though it has been carved directly from the landscape itself — bold yet restrained, dramatic yet deeply serene. Spanning over 5,500 square feet, the home offers five ensuite bedrooms, a media room, and 5.5 bathrooms, thoughtfully designed to create a sense of both openness and retreat. Inside, the architecture dissolves the boundary between indoors and out. Floor-to-ceiling windows and doors frame layers of tropical greenery, allowing filtered light to move through the home while creating a constant dialogue between shadow and sun. Natural materials anchor the interiors with warmth and depth. Dark-stained white oak floors and custom oak carpentry are paired with natural stone, soft plaster walls, and carefully integrated lighting that disappears into the architecture. A dramatic 24-foot skylight above a living planter in the kitchen draws daylight deep into the home, reinforcing the seamless relationship between nature and design. The experience extends beyond the interiors. Integrated planters throughout the architecture, a koi pond, and lush tropical landscaping transform the grounds into a forest-like oasis, while a pool and outdoor living spaces create a private environment designed for both relaxation and entertaining. Located south of Ventura Boulevard in one of Studio City's most desirable pockets, the property sits just moments from Harvard-Westlake School, Erewhon Market, and the vibrant restaurants and lifestyle amenities surrounding Sportsmen's Lodge. Obsidian House is not simply a residence — it is a refuge. A place where architecture, nature, and materiality converge to create a home that is timeless, immersive , and unmistakably bold.
