George Sturges House
House in Los Angeles, California
About
The George Sturges House is a single-family house, designed by architect Frank Lloyd Wright and built for George D. Sturges in the Brentwood Heights neighborhood of Brentwood, Los Angeles, California. Designed and built in 1939, the one-story residence is fairly small compared to 21st century standards, 1,200 square feet (110 m2), but features a 21-foot panoramic deck. The home is made out of concrete, steel, brick and redwood. Wright hired Taliesin fellow John Lautner to oversee its construction.
The Sturges House is the only structure in Southern California built in Wright's modern Usonian style. Other Wright homes in the area were built in the 1920s as textile block houses, including the Ennis House.
