The 1949 Schaffer Residence in the Verdugo Hills is probably best known now as the house from Tom Ford's great-looking movie, A Single Man. It's one of architect John Lautner's most understated designs, maybe, but it's also one of his most elegant.
One of Lautner's early pieces, the house harkens back to a lot of Lautner's influences from when he was with Frank Lloyd Wright.
The little shape of the kitchen was in much the shape of his tent that he had to design for himself when he was living at Taliesin West (FLLW's home and training grounds). For some critics it's one of the most resolved of his work, there's a lot of intricacy, but it all fits together in a sculptural manner that makes it not only a wonderful environment to live in, but what translates as a work of art as well.
