Canadian billionaires continue their polite and orderly takeover of Los Angeles. After Uber creator Garrett Camp’s record-setting $73 million purchase in the 90210, fellow Canadian Daryl Katz raised him $119.8 million with the acquisition of the Spelling Manor. Katz also owns a $120 million stunner in Malibu, but that’s neither here nor there.

Wish co-founder Peter Szulczewksi joined the lovely bunch recently. His meteoric rise is nicely echoed in his recent purchase of a brand-new home. The marketing specialist and businessman now calls this 2019-built contemporary in lower Bel Air home.

The home sold for $15.3 million, according to public records. It’s a moody home, even by contemporary standards, keeping to grayscale tones and glass throughout; a timber accent over the entry is one of the few suggestions of overt warmth in sight. The exterior is expressed in strident lines, masonry, and transparency, giving way to interiors that suggest only the possibility of emotion.

Flat-finished, pale wide-plank hardwood, an open concept common area, and walls of glass distinguish the living space. There’s an abundant variation of high-end stone embellishment throughout, with fireplaces, accent walls, and kitchen sporting marble of contrasting shade and figuring, and a spectacular roof light capping the stairwell and offering a heady sense of continuation.

Beyond material excess, ornament is kept to a minimum in the 11,700 square-footer, deepening the home’s expressed living style as noncommittal and neatly reticent. Amenities, however, are many, and include a magnificent master suite with a fireplace and a terrace that takes full advantage of the location’s views, a sauna, a home theater, a wet bar, a garage suited for an auto collection, an extravagant outdoor kitchen with a beautiful marble bar, and a zero-edge pool overlooking the city.

According to Forbes, 37-year-old Peter Szulczewksi has a net worth around $1.4 billion.
