Ready made: An architect embraces Neutra

Article Abstract:

C. J. Bonura, an architect redesigned a house put for sale by Richard Neutra, which is one of eight that Neutra developed near the scenic Silver Lake reservoir, between downtown Los Angeles and Hollywood. The 1,600-square foot house, its exterior a mix of redwood, smooth steel troweled plaster and sprayed stucco, has typical Neutra elements, such as a spider leg post and beam that supports the deep roof overhang integration of indoors and outdoors that Bonura found most striking.
