Overview"In 1937, then apprentice with Frank Lloyd Wright, John Lautner (1911-1995) came to Los Angeles to supervise construction of the Sturgess Residence. Two years later he established his own office in Hollywood, building a house for himself with Henry Russel Hitchcock called ""the best house by an architect under 30 in the US"", the first of many unique buildings. Never part of the architectural establishment, John Lautner always practised what he called ""real Architecture"". Among the best-known examples are the Malin Residence (Chemosphere), the Reiner Residence (Silvertop), the Arango Residence in Acapulco, and the Elrod Residence in Palm Springs. Lautner's work ranges from exciting but low-cost houses to finely crafted large residences, to restaurants and educational facilities." Full Product DetailsAuthor: Frank C.
