Kaufmann House By Richard Neutra
Kaufmann House, is a house in Palm Springs, California that was designed by architect Richard Neutra in 1946. It was commissioned by Edgar J. Kaufmann, Sr., a businessman who also commissioned Fallingwater by Frank Lloyd Wright.
The house has been described as "an architectural marvel that helped define the modernist aesthetic of the resort city of Palm Springs".It is designated a Class 1 Historic Site by Palm Springs City Council.
The house was commissioned by Edgar J. Kaufmann, Sr., the owner of Kaufmann's Department Store in Pittsburgh, as a desert retreat from harsh winters. It was made famous by photographs taken by Julius Shulman in 1947 and the 1970 photograph "Poolside Gossip" by Slim Aarons. In 1935, Kaufmann had commissioned Frank Lloyd Wright to design Fallingwater in Pennsylvania.
After Kaufmann died in 1955, the house stood vacant for several years. It then had a series of owners, including singer Barry Manilow and San Diego Chargers owner Eugene V. Klein, and had several renovations. These renovations enclosed a patio, added floral wallpaper to the bedrooms and removed a wall for the addition of a media room. The roof lines were also altered with the addition of air-conditioning units. After being listed for sale for 3½ years, the home was purchased in 1992 by Brent Harris, an investment manager, and his wife Beth Edwards Harris, an architectural historian, for $1.5 million.
Seeking to restore the home to its original design, the Harris contacted Marmol Radziner + Associates to undertake the five-year project, which began in 1993. For references, the Harrises looked through the extensive Neutra archives at UCLA, found additional documents through Columbia University, and were able to work with Shulman to access some of his unpublished photos of the home's interior. They were able to obtain pieces from the original suppliers of paint and fixtures, and purchased a metal-crimping machine to reproduce the sheet-metal fascia that originally lined the roof.
The Harrises were also able to have a long-closed section of a Utah quarry reopened to mine matching stone to replace what had been removed or damaged. To help restore the desert buffer Neutra had envisioned for the house, the Harrises also bought several adjoining plots to more than double the land around the 3,200-square-foot (300 m2) house. They rebuilt a pool house that served as a viewing pavilion for the main house, and kept a tennis court that was built on a parcel added to the original Kaufmann property.
After the Harrises divorced, the home was sold on May 13, 2008, for US$15 million at auction by Christie's as a part of a high-profile sale of contemporary art. It had a presale estimate of US$15 million to US$25 million. The sale later fell through, as the bidder breached terms of the purchase agreement.
In October 2008, the house was listed for sale at US$12.95 million, but it was not sold. It was again listed for sale in October 2020 at US$25 million.
The Kaufmann house was included in a list of all-time top 10 houses in Los Angeles, despite its location in Palm Springs, in a Los Angeles Times survey of experts in December 2008.

Game Over...two days of looking for any address information anywhere on the web; thought I had a conspiracy on my hands. Although Bill Crawford passed away, he still was a political contributor in 2004 - gotta love FEC filings. Everyone looks in Montecito...HA! - 271 Penny Lane. Thank me later - prepare for a view avalanche. Apologies for the gush but this was my most satisfying find to date.

'Sheats-Goldstein House' by John Lautner
Had the pleasure of visiting this house in the late-80s just after the renovation. I was touring in author Alan Hess' Architectural History class from SCI-ARC.
Heard that Lautner climbed on the roof the night before the concrete was to be poured and he placed many drinking glasses upside down to form makeshift pinlights in the ceiling on a whim. Genius.

'Morris Greenwald House' by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe
Largely unpublished and generally unknown, this '55 house was designed for the brother of Herbert Greenwald, the developer of the Lake Shore Drive apartments in Chicago. The window wall is actually left over sash from Lake Shore.
There is some speculation that Mies had little to do with this house but it is still recognized as one of three US houses.
A new owner acquired the home in the 80's and, sensitive to the history of the house, hired Peter Gluck's firm to add some rather nice pavillion additions.

Elrod House By John Lautner
Elrod House is a residence in Palm Springs, California designed by American architect John Lautner and constructed in 1968. It is located on the edge of a hill at 2175 Southridge Drive in Palm Springs, California. The construction of the house was ordered by Arthur Elrod, the interior designer.
One of Lautner's many houses in Southridge and Palm Springs as a whole, the Elrod House is one of his most famous structures and an example of his so-called free architecture, where architecture and nature are combined. When the house was built, the soil was excavated but the rocks were kept in place. These rocks are part of the interior of the house and run straight through the walls and windows.
Its best-known feature is the large circular concrete canopy above the main living area with a circular glass design. The living room incorporates large rocks and opens onto an outdoor swimming pool and a terrace that offers a view of Palm Springs and the San Jacinto Peak.
The Elrod House's most notable appearance was as Willard Whyte's mansion in the 1971 James Bond film Diamonds Are Forever. The living room, swimming pool, and an interior room were displayed in the film.
The house has also been the site of photo shoots for adult publisher Playboy, and was featured in a 2010 tabloid from Yale University graphic design student Benjamin Critton.
The Elrod House was also showcased in the 2013 architecture documentary Infinite Space: The Architecture of Lautner.
Real-estate investor Michael J. Kilroy bought the Elrod House from billionaire Ron Burkle in 2003 for $5.5 million. During his ownership, Burkle updated the mechanics and restored the interior furnishings.
In April 2014, The Desert Sun reported that accusations in court documents alleged that Kilroy—who also owns two other Southridge properties—had stopped paying mortgages, most HOA dues, and property taxes. The Desert Sun article said that the Southridge Property Owners Association of Palm Springs filed a lawsuit against Kilroy in May 2012 for over $148,730 in assessments. Kilroy had reportedly signed promissory notes that did not pay the full dues. UK lender Lloyds Bank plc also filed a suit against Kilroy in Riverside County Superior Court in mid-2012, alleging Kilroy owed near $1.8 million for missed mortgage payments, as well as legal and other fees. The Desert Sun also reported that high winds in January 2012 had "lifted roof shingles from homes and buffeted sections of the Elrod House." At the time of publication in 2014, the article stated that portions of the roof were covered by "tarp canopies." The article said that a trial in the Lloyds Bank lawsuit was set for April 2015.
In May 2016, the house was turned over to the bank and its asking price was reduced to $8 million from the previous asking price of $10.5 million (which reflected a 2009 reduction from the earlier reported price of $13.89 million). The house was bought by fashion designer Jeremy Scott.
