A mirrored sauna pavilion, a cube of reflective walls, stands among mature trees in Upper Nichols Canyon, and it reflects the foliage back at the hillside. The pavilion is one feature of a Hollywood Hills house that the Los Angeles studio Ome Dezin has redesigned. The property is now on sale for $14 million.
If the reflective pavilion caught your eye, see how Chang Hao Studio used mirrors in a Shanghai setting. Chang Hao’s mirrored pavilion in Shanghai shows how reflective walls can dissolve a built environment into its surroundings.

Architect Jeffrey Mills designed the house in 1997. It sits on Woodrow Wilson Drive, a winding road above the city, on more than an acre of land. The 4,910-square-foot home mixes exposed timber beams, concrete, glass and stone.

A house with a layered ownership history
Television host Daisy Fuentes bought the house in 2005 for $4.5 million, according to Mansion Global. Actor Michael B. Jordan bought it from Fuentes in an off-market deal in September 2019 for $5.8 million, according to Robb Report.

Jordan sold the house in May 2022. Parade reported a list price of $6,988,000 that year, while Robb Report reports the sale price as $6.95 million. In July 2025, the founders of Ome Dezin bought the property for $5.25 million.

Remodeling for warmth
Joelle Hutner and Jesse Rudolph, longtime friends, founded Ome Dezin in 2020. Their earlier projects include the restoration of an original A. Quincy Jones home in Brentwood. The studio says it drew its direction from the building and its setting.

“The existing architecture and surrounding landscape were the key inspirations for our design direction,” Ome Dezin told Robb Report by email. The remodel of the interiors took about a year and a half. The studio’s main challenge was the building’s scale. The house had been used as an art gallery, and its large rooms needed warmth, depth and intimacy, the studio said.

Wood-paneled walls, sculptural furniture and several fireplaces soften the interiors. Clerestory windows bring light down onto exposed beams in the great room. A steel fireplace with an off-center profile anchors the space. The library holds a built-in L-shaped sofa, and the dining room has an integrated wet bar.

The kitchen pairs a La Cornue range with a professional pizza oven. A screening room sits nearby. The main living space opens directly onto the swimming pool.

The Hollywood Hills home has four bedrooms and five full bathrooms, plus a powder room. A ground-floor guest suite opens onto the pool and gardens. The primary suite includes a fireplace, a corner terrace and a dressing room. Its bathroom has a freestanding marble tub and a shower clad in blue and white marble, with views over the treetops.
A mirrored sauna pavilion in the trees
Mature trees and tropical planting surround the pool and spa. Terraces and garden rooms are spread across the grounds, which are gated. A stepped waterfall, an outdoor kitchen and fire-pit seating give residents several places to spend time outside.
The newest addition is this pavilion, which Robb Report links to Doug Aitken‘s “Mirage,” a mirror-clad house in the Southern California desert. Its reflective walls show the surrounding landscape. Inside, the structure holds a sauna and a bathroom tiled in chartreuse.
Readers interested in saunas set within natural settings may also enjoy this look at how such structures fit into wellness retreats. Prefabricated panoramic sauna for scenic retreats explains how a prefab design can blend into a landscape with minimal disruption.

Acme x Serhant lists the home, with agents Charles Derenne, Silk Fernald and Dominique Madden. The pavilion is the most unusual feature of the property. It works because it turns the canyon itself into part of the design, which is the same thing the rest of the house does.
