John Lautner F.A.I.A.
1430 Avon Ter, Los Angeles, CA
$2,395,000
John Lautner, FAIA, Architect | Jules Salkin Residence, 1948 | Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument No. 1111 | Renovation by Barbara Bestor, FAIA, Architect. Here on more than a third of an acre in the hills of Echo Park, with panoramic views down the canyon all the way to the ocean in Santa Monica, this early mid-century modern work by the architect incorporates elements learned during his six-year apprenticeship with Frank Lloyd Wright, in addition to the bold experimentation that would come to define his personal oeuvre. On one hand, Wrights principles of the low-cost Usonian house are clearly visible: a small footprint, an emphasis on horizontality, a restricted palette of materials, the principles of compression and release, and the use of board-and-batten redwood siding. On the other hand, Lautner was playful in his expression of the overall form: seven pairs of triangular Douglas Fir timbers create a spine for the house, supporting an upside-down triangular truss roof with little need for structure at the perimeter, lifting the ceiling plane up toward the sky, and allowing glass walls and sliding doors to connect directly to the landscape. Commissioned speculatively by polymath (concert violist, contractor, developer, architect, and attorney) Jules Salkin, one of the four studio musicians that founded the Crestwood Hills architectural community in Brentwood, the home was lost to history through decades of ownership by the original family, including additions and remodels that made the home almost unidentifiable. Fortunately, in 2014 the home was rediscovered by the current owner, who painstakingly researched the propertys pedigree, removing additions and reducing square footage, to restore the property to its original condition, in collaboration with architect Barbara Bestor. The result is a successful marriage of old and new, where original details have been preserved, alongside new finishes that have been introduced compatibly. Butt-glazed clerestor

William Kesling
11576 Otsego St, North Hollywood, CA
$1,695,000
Presenting an excellent opportunity for the modern collector, Hollywood history buff, or developer/builder/end-user: An original portfolio piece by American architect William Kesling, known for designing a historic collection of homes in the Streamline Moderne style (a subtype of Art Deco aptly dubbed "ocean liner" style by the French) throughout Los Angeles. Given its close proximity to studios, theres no surprise that it was originally used as a party haven for Hollywoods tastemakers, but that was just the beginning. In 1980, this iconic residence was purchased by two-time Grammy-winning, Emmy- and Tony-nominated songwriter and art director Allee Willis, and the rest is nothing short of music history. Willis gave the architectural diamond its baby pink hue, but otherwise preserved its original identity while performing a complete restoration. Here, the former Motown Records dreamer would host lavish gatherings and themed jamborees which quickly became notorious throughout Hollywoods social circles, her exclusive guest list including the likes of Cher and Joni Mitchell. The home would also serve as the birthplace of her vast body of work, resulting in a long list of smash-hit songs such as "September" and "Boogie Wonderland" by Earth, Wind & Fire, "Neutron Dance" by The Pointer Sisters, and "Ill Be There for You," the indelible theme song of NBCs hit television show Friends. Over the years, she welcomed legendary recording artists and collaborators to the on-site state-of-the-art music studio (James Brown, Bob Dylan, and Cyndi Lauper are just a few). With an insatiable desire to create, she also sculpted and painted numerous art pieces. Willis was also an avid collector, adorning her home with countless pop culture treasures from the 1950s, 60s, 70s, and 80s. Of her penchant for throwing parties, Willis notably once said in an interview, "I always had a music career, an art career, set designer, film and video, technology. The parties really became the only pl
