\n\tCharles Du Bois, the late midcentury architect most remembered for infusing ranch-style homes with Asian and Polynesian influences, left his mark across Southern California<\/a>. He was a well-known figure in Palm Springs\u2019s desert modernism movement and in Los Angeles<\/a>, where he designed more than 1,000 modern ranch homes in the suburban San Fernando Valley<\/a> community of Woodland Hills<\/a>, creating a sprawling subdivision known as Woodland West, now a recognized historic district.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tOne standout example in the neighborhood is\u00a0a colorful four-bedroom residence<\/a>\u00a0on a prime quarter-acre corner parcel. The relatively unassuming exterior\u2019s mint-green front door hints at the revamped residence\u2019s color-drenched interiors. The current owners have thoughtfully utilized rich colors that complement original architectural details like the vaulted ceilings and Du Bois\u2019s signature open floor plan.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe centerpiece of the home is a salmon-colored, double-sided masonry fireplace that rises smack in the middle of the living room, creating two separate lounges that both flow easily to the backyard. Wide banks of glass sliders open to a covered patio alongside a brick-lined swimming pool.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tA small dining area is tucked to the side of the great room, next to the entrance to the kitchen. Here, modern appliances are paired with mod pistachio-green cabinetry and a tiled backsplash. There\u2019s also an eat-in breakfast nook for casual meals.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tThe bedrooms and bathrooms are a veritable kaleidoscope of colors. The primary bedroom is done up in a punchy mauve, while the others come in muted chartreuse, soft eggshell blue, and sunny yellow. The brick-red primary bath features a pink-and-red striped shower, while another bathroom has a similar striped tile pattern in blue and yellow.<\/p>\n
