based on the colours, i'd say Faidherbe & Pinto architectes

but i can't find that project on their website

Dec 11, 08 3:20 am  ·

nope sorry Holz.... they are pretty famous too! If it helps they were previously featured in 40 under 40

Is it N+B Architectes? It looks like their work, but I can't find it on their website.

Yay -- explanatory data. Photos don't tell the whole story, do they ? And drawings -- those things you guys labor over -- are fun to look at, too. . .

Yeah,

Thought I would try a plan and see how we go.

Might be harder... Might not be.

Dec 14, 08 5:34 pm  ·

alot harder. I could show you about 10 floor plans that look and are rendered almost identically. But its worth a try

judging on the size of the outdoor deck I'm guessing somewhere warm, but not too warm as can be seen on the size of the trees, thinness of the wallness, etc. A part of me immediately jumped to Rick Joy, but I want to think its somewhere below the equator say Australia, Argentina, Brazil, or Chile.

Its Spanish, and it has a very nice symmetrical roof with an internal gutter...

the spanish w/ internal gutter gave it away, it's been making the roudns lately.

It was actually completed about a year after Koenig was working on #22. Interesting how the breadth of modernism included so many regions at the same time. The only other picture I can find online is this grainy interior shot:



I'll post some other projects by the same architect in a few.

SDR - south-eastern Europe. He's still alive and building today, his portfolio includes mostly private residential and tourist hotel in the area.

a couple of other projects:



and the architect's own house (not the one above)

Ah good guess holz, but ney. This architect is still alive (I belive). This picture of another of his buildings should do it:

Well done Orhan. I wish more existed on the house I posted, I would love to see some drawings but information is scarce online. The publication that was released in tandem with that exhibit seems to be obscure as well.

Still no idea on the architect of your buildings.

Orhan: Let's try Allyn Morris.

The first of the trio of colored photos above seems to be of his own house in LA. Other photos show up on this thread:

Your shot is a unique over (or under)view. Nice ! (Yes, those are little blue-green tiles under the eaves, and in the kitchen. . .)

SDR, yes. glen small worked for morris. he appearently leaves near yoshemite. pictures were fom postcards he made of the houses. if you send me your address i will send you a series of 5-6 postcards. i have a whole bunch glen gave me.
those are amazing counter weight lift up steel frame openings. i wish i could go up to yoshemite and talk to him. glen gave me his number and said he loves to talk about architecture! he must be in his 90's.
i admit, i knew about his apartment building above echo park lake but i didn't know much about these houses and never seen them. when i saw the pictures i said "wow this is better than schindler," both glen and ray kappe looked at me and said "as good as." .;.))
