In Hidden Hills, JLo’s at it again
Built in 1993, the sprawling traditional-style home has 17,129 square feet of living space and a range of amenities. Among features of note are a breezeway that connects to a work/entertainment wing with dance and recording studios, a 20-seat theater, a game room and a speak-easy-style bar.

Romano is an adherent of parametricism, a design style that eschews right angles, repetitive flatness, and what the designerbuilder calls “authoritarian” boxlike structures.

It was a record year for epic deals
Sitting on 10 acres of grounds, the residence includes a 12,200- square-foot Italian Revival-style mansion, two guesthouses, a swimming pool and a tennis court. The development group intends to retain the main house and subdivide the property to build four additional homes, according to sources not authorized to comment on the deal.
