Architect John Lautner was behind some of the most striking and innovative architectural designs in the mid 20th-century America. With the designs for homes and commercial buildings primarily in Southern California, Lautners innovative work captured the pioneering optimism of the 1950s America. A time of space-age technology, economic growth, and affluence. Today, several of Lautners houses are labeled Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monuments. Lautners projects focused on the relationship between humans, space, and nature. He was always particularly sensitive to the surrounding environment and would often integrate water and natural landscapes into his designs. His houses are characterized by sweeping rooflines, glass-paneled walls, and steel beams, in a heady combination of fantasy and minimalism. Eschewing architectural orthodoxies, Lautner emphasized geometric shapes such as circles and triangles, incorporating myriad technological innovations.
