SqFt.
This home has been described as,
This magical compound is tucked away on a 30,000 sq. ft. lot nestled against the backside of the Eagle Rock. The main house, with its canopy roof composed of four equal hyperbolic paraboloids, is as dramatic as the setting. Designed by Arthur Lavagnino and engineered by William C. Taylor it has no bearing walls, only, partitions to delineate rooms. The canopy roof sits on four exterior concrete pillars. Walls of glass open onto a wrap-around patio and serenely landscaped grounds. There is a guest house (not permitted) with almost 600 sq. ft. that includes a newly constructed kitchen and bath. It, too, is filled with light and offers views and its own outside sitting area. Although the property has a Pasadena mailing address it is located in Los Angeles. It received a Merit Award in 1959 from the Pasadena Chapter of the American Institute of Architects.
