Last year we discussed an unbuilt Wright design that had both flat roofs and gables.
Lautner offers an interesting mix on this one.
I'd only seen pictures of the living room of this house...
Pretty neat how Lautner produced a fairly secluded patio area in an otherwise sandwiched residential lot.
Guess it doesn't matter anymore... ugh.
The front bedroom seems too exposed, even with the exterior privacy wall.
Was it to serve as a study or office maybe?
