The Calvin House – is an exceptional A. Quincy Jones Tarzana home. Constructed in 1960, the residence is an exemplary work of mid-century modern architecture by the acclaimed architect. As you step inside, you’re greeted by an expansive open floor plan connecting the living spaces and creating a functional flow. Large windows invite natural light to flood the interiors, blurring the boundaries between indoor and outdoor spaces. One of the architect’s key design features is the integration of the structure with the surrounding environment and the lush greenery encompassing the home.
The spacious living room of the Calvin House showcases Jones’s skill in creating inviting, open spaces and dialog of the outdoors. With walls of glass, the room is filled with natural light and offers an unobstructed view of the expansive pool. A grand piano serves as a centerpiece at one end of the room. A sleek, minimalist fireplace that is open on two sides adds warmth and ambiance. Above the post-and-beam construction celebrates the classic ideals of mid-century modern design.
