Sited on a fascinating view promontory in Trousdale, Jim Jannard’s brutalist mansion is an 18,000-square-foot fortress worthy of a Bond villain. It is constructed completely from poured-in-place concrete, with a big round motor courtroom that leads straight right into a sun-filled dwelling space with a wall of glass that retracts into the bottom for entry to the patio and pool. An industrial aesthetic — true to Jannard’s Oakley and RED roots — dominates the inside, carrying by means of the connoisseur kitchen, bar, nice room, and theater to the 5 bedrooms, visitor condo, and curved hallways that solely heighten the drama of this one-of-a-kind residence.
