This Wilshire Corridor high-rise renovation reimagines a once compartmentalized condominium into a luminous, open-concept residence defined by proportion, material contrast, and technical precision. Constrained by fixed plumbing stacks, electrical risers, and structural shear walls typical of Los Angeles high-rise construction, the transformation required strategic engineering rather than simple demolition. Select non-load-bearing walls were removed, ceilings were thoughtfully raised where allowable, and custom soffits were redesigned to conceal rerouted mechanical systems — allowing the space to feel significantly larger without compromising the building’s infrastructure.
At the heart of the home, a custom shaker-style white kitchen introduces timeless architecture through tailored millwork, stainless steel appliances, refined hardware, and clean-lined surfaces that reflect natural light. Dark walnut engineered hardwood flooring runs throughout the residence, grounding the airy palette with warmth and depth while creating a striking contrast against the crisp cabinetry. In the bathrooms, large-format marble wraps floors and walls in a seamless gesture, paired with frameless glass enclosures and restrained detailing to evoke a serene, spa-like atmosphere within the urban skyline.
The result is a sophisticated Wilshire Corridor condominium renovation that balances structural intelligence with Architectural Digest–worthy restraint — a modern Los Angeles high-rise residence elevated through craftsmanship, clarity, and purposeful design.
