An industrial Venice house by the architects wHY.

This striking Venice property is a masterpiece of raw, industrial elegance, making it one of the standout photoshoot locations LA creatives love. Brought to life by the renowned architecture firm wHY, this space was once a failed sushi restaurant and office building, now transformed into a home that embodies the creative energy of its owners. It blends exposed brick walls, wood ceilings, and sleek concrete floors with contemporary design touches.

Why Powell House

A steel-and-glass atrium staircase ties the space together, leading to a loft-inspired living area with seamless indoor-outdoor flow. Sliding doors open to a courtyard featuring a lap pool, hot tub, and firepit, while the rooftop deck—complete with olive trees—offers ocean views and the capacity to host up to 150 guests.

Located just steps from Venice Beach and Abbot Kinney, this space is a top choice among photoshoot locations LA offers, ideal for film sets, intimate gatherings, and inspired projects.
