John Lautner's Tyler Residence in Studio City

Another of John Lautner's house. The Tyler House in Studio City.

A 1950s 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom house. Studio City is a neighbourhood in Los Angeles. It is quite an affluent residential neighbourhood in the San Fernardo Valley. There are a large majority of residents who work in film, TV, and the music industry. Party central.

From LA Curbed

The movie The Human Contract was filmed using the house. Yet there was also another film, a softcore film which also used the house, without permission though. Rebellious!

 

Tom Ford's A Single Man......That house, That furniture. That MAN!

The modernist home from Tom Ford's movie A Single Man with Colin Firth and Julianne Moore, is in Los Angeles and is actually for sale. $1,395,000 to be exact. And honestly, I was pleasently surprised by the price tag. It should be like a good piece of furniture...and go up in value due to it's history. Can you imagine living in this home. I'd have to learn to do my hair like Julianne Moore and learn to drink scotch or whisky. 

The home was designed by architect John Edward Lautner, and is in the base of the Verdugo Mountains. 

John Lautner was an apprentice to Frank Lloyd Wright. Which is no surprise really!
