The Midcentury Modern home is in the Trousdale Estates area of Beverly Hills.
Hilton & Hyland
Restored and expanded for a 2020s lifestyle, this artful Midcentury Modern home in Beverly Hills’ Trousdale Estates traces its origins to a starlet and a master architect.
The minimalist residence was built for Paris-born actress Corinne Calvet, who voiced Rita Hayworth in French versions of American films. She would go on to be signed by Paramount, MGM and 20th Century Fox, starring alongside such leading men as John Drew Barrymore and Danny Kaye.
The irregular shape of the zero-edge pool follows the lines of the house.

The showplace was designed in 1959 by L.A. architect Rex Lotery. Known for Elvis and Priscilla Presley’s marital residence in Trousdale Estates, Lotery is today included on Beverly Hills’ list of Master Architects. Inclusion is one determining factor in identifying historic and notable homes deemed worthy of preservation.
Reimagined by the design team of Philippe Naouri and Eric Choi at Maison d’Artiste, and in collaboration with Studio Tim Campbell, the house maintains its architectural integrity while displaying contemporary design elements.
