The Hargis house, a recent project by the Los Angeles-based design-build firm Allprace, stands out for its deliberate use of peaked, gabled volumes that break from the city's typical flat-roofed modernism. The design focuses on creating a sense of permanence and comfort, utilizing a tactile palette of stone and wood to ground the structure within its site.

By emphasizing these traditional roof forms, the architects have managed to balance a contemporary aesthetic with a feeling of warmth. The project highlights Allprace's commitment to high-quality craftsmanship, blending structural clarity with natural materials to create a residential space that feels both timeless and deeply connected to its Southern California environment.
