09 Mar Inside Jim Jannard’s Ultra-Modern Brutalist Mansion in Trousdale

Perched on a highly desirable promontory in Trousdale Estates, Jim Jannard’s 18,000-square-foot brutalist mansion is a true architectural masterpiece, resembling a high-tech fortress straight out of a James Bond film. Designed with an industrial aesthetic that reflects Jannard’s visionary approach at Oakley and RED Digital Cinema, the residence is constructed entirely from poured-in-place concrete, offering both durability and a bold, sculptural presence.

At the heart of the estate, a grand circular motor court leads directly into a sun-drenched living area, where a massive retractable glass wall seamlessly disappears into the ground, opening to an expansive patio and infinity-edge pool with breathtaking city views. Inside, the modern-industrial theme continues throughout the gourmet kitchen, designer bar, great room, and private theater, all meticulously crafted for both comfort and high-end luxury.

The mansion features five lavish bedrooms, a private guest apartment, and striking curved hallways, enhancing the dramatic design of this one-of-a-kind contemporary estate. With its blend of cutting-edge architecture, exclusive location, and cinematic appeal, this Trousdale dream home is a standout among luxury real estate in Los Angeles.
