LISA BOONE Los Angeles Times LOS ANGELES — When filmmaker and poet Jane Stephens Rosenthal purchased her 1905 Craftsman-inspired home in Elysian Heights in 2013, she says she was particularly charmed by the backyard’s idiosyncratic handbuilt structures. The previous owner, a set decorator, had adorned the steep, multilevel yard with theatrical arches, a rustic stone fireplace and a disintegrating, unpermitted open- air pavilion, which included electricity. “The yard is what captivated me,” says Rosenthal, who enclosed the pavilion and turned it into her writing studio. But she also knew that the unpermitted structure was not a long-term solution. “It was a hazard,” recalls designer Ben Warwas. Rosenthal reached out to Warwas, who, along with architect Chris Skeens, is fresh off receiving a merit honor for ad- ditions and ADUs at this year’s American Institute of Architects, Los Angeles resi- GINA FERAZZI PHOTOS, LOS ANGELES TIMES/TNS dential awards. In the hopes of creating a writing stu- Architects Ben Warwas, left, and Chris Skeens are framed through a door window just outside the writing studio they designed for poet and dio that was as unique as the original filmmaker Jane Stephens Rosenthal on June 4, 2021 in Los Angeles, California. structure, Rosenthal asked the pair to design something fresh and new for her backyard. “I wanted my own space to work,” says Rosenthal, who is working on a coming- of-age feature. “But I also wanted to keep that whimsical vibe.” The result? The ultimate WFH cave, the result of intense collaboration among artist, designer and architect. After 12 months of work, held up by significant delays due to COVID-19, they’ve dubbed the new writing studio “Stiff Peaks” to acknowledge its most dramatic feature — a scalloped parapet that resembles beaten egg whites and disguises a roof deck where Rosenthal can catch some rays and not be seen by her neighbors on the hill next door. The writing studio called “Stiff Peaks” at the home of poet and Poet and filmmaker Jane Stephens Rosenthal sits at her desk inside filmmaker Jane Stephens Rosenthal on June 4, 2021 in Los Angeles, her uniquely designed writing studio on June 4, 2021 in Los Angeles, Please see WFH, Page H9 California.

he old saying “it’s not the T heat, it’s the humidity” has a lot of truth to it. In recent weeks, many people ranging from Olympians to those living under the heat dome have had to deal with a lot of heat and hu- midity combined. Fortunately, humidity is not entirely out of your control. The PAUL F.P. most comfortable POGUE home is one that’s balanced in a va- riety of elements. Humidity can upset that delicate balance by being too low or too high. A humidity level of about 45% is ideal. You don’t want it higher than 50% or lower than 30%.

If it causes condensa- tion, you’ll get moisture buildup around the house, including behind walls and ceilings. Too much humidity promotes the growth of fungus and mold.
