Happy 101st Birthday John Lautner!

Image
Architect John Lautner would have turned 101 years old on July 16, 2012. In celebration of this day I wanted to point out some of his major works in Architecture. These unique and innovative designs deserve the distinction as Organic Architecture Design based on the teachings of the Master Architect Frank Lloyd Wright , but unlike many of Wright's other apprentices was Lautner's ability to go further making the transition to Master Architect. Major Works: Elrod Residence Sheats / Goldstein Residence The Chemosphere Arrango Residence Reiner Residence (Silvertop) As part of an even last year celebrating John Lautner's 100th birthday the Lautner Foundation hosted an exhibition and tour of several of the homes in Los Angeles.
