The Henry O. Bollman Residence, Lloyd Wright (1922). After collaborating on Frank Lloyd Wright’s seminal Hollyhock House, Wright’s son, Lloyd Wright, and his top surrogate in Los Angeles, R.M. Schindler, both struck out on their own.
Schindler built his pioneering home and studio on Kings Road; Wright built the Henry O. Bollman Residence. Just his second independent commission, it translated the lessons Wright had learned working alongside the finest designers of his day his father,
Schindler, Olmsted & Olmsted, Irving Gill and Norman Bel Geddes into a harmonious and distinctive whole. Today, Wright’s vision remains entirely intact, with only the most sensitive updates for 21st-century living. Patterned concrete blocks and Mesoamerican massing evoke a sense of Hollywood drama; exquisite interior-exterior flow presages midcentury trends by several decades.
