Abstract

The distinction between indoors and outdoors wil disappear', wrote Rudolph Schindler in 1926: 'Our house will lose its front-and-back door aspect. It will cease being a group of dens, some large ones for social effect, and a few smaller ones in which to herd the family.' Formed in Vienna in the school of Otto Wagner and Adolf Loos, Schindler went to America in 1914, and worked for Frank Lloyd Wright before settling in Hollywood in 1922. There, over the next thirty years- which included a period of partnership with Richard Neutra- he developed a personal style that responded to the hot California climate and the cool California mood. His own house in Hollywood and the Lovell House at Newport Beach, both of the 1920s, have a breath-taking sureness of touch in their interlocking shapes. This book is the first full-scale study of an architect whose buildings, with the rise of the 'New Brutalism' and Pop Art, are coming to be recognized as stimulating alternatives to the International Style.

Abstract

When architects design a house for themselves, the often tense relationship between clients and builders is usually absent. That is why in many such buildings the architect-designer's artistic stance and political position, preferences and antipathies, temperament and character are more pronounced than usual. Moreover the architectonic theories, debates and trends of an epoch also leave their traces in them in a particular way. Building for oneself has a special connotation under the conditions of migration and exile. Among the most prominent examples are the private homes of Rudolph Schindler in West Hollywood (1922), Richard Neutra in Los Angeles (1932), Ernst May near Nairobi (1937), Walter Gropius in Lincoln, Massachusetts (1938), Bruno Taut in Istanbul (1938), Ernö Goldfinger in London (1939), Josep Lluís Sert in Locust Valley, New York (1949), Max Cetto in Mexico City (1949) and Marcel Breuer in New Canaan, Connecticut (1948 and 1951).
