Lautner Exhibit

Regular readers probably know of my love for John Lautner. If you happen to be in Los Angeles between July 13th and October 12th this year, I fully recommend taking the time to visit the Hammer Museum and see their Lautner Exhibition as well drive up Mulholland or around Silverlake and see some of his work. If you are there in the September time frame there will be a new documentary screened.
While Launter is more known for his later period concrete curved and cantilevered structures, like those pictured here, it is his earlier work that really kindled my love for mid-century modern design.
