From the Agent: "This sustainable testament to modern simplicity was designed by Swedish architecture firm Jordens Arkitekter. In the design, Jordens sought to bridge the gap between ‘global and local, analog and digital’ while creating a living environment that would breathe and live in harmony with its inhabitants. Clad in wood and built to work in tandem with the existing landscape, this one-of-a-kind property is up to the task. Its striking, modern-minimal silhouette embodies the principles that Jordens stands for: valued craftsmanship and the promotion of a slower pace of living that encourages presence and fosters tranquility."

Perched in the hills of Echo Park, the wood-clad property sits propped on a sleek concrete base, which cleverly creates additional parking under the home's cantilevered living areas.

With three bedrooms including one flex space with its own separate entrance and four bathrooms spanning over 2,200 square feet (or 204 square meters, it is Swedish, after all), this home is a true jewel of the lively Echo Park neighborhood.
