JOHN LAUTNER
John Lautner’s architecture is rooted in a personal design philosophy that is the imaginative extension of the organic architectural theories of Frank Lloyd Wright, his exuberant designs and broad spectrum of approaches epitomize the landscape of southern California from the fifties techno-optimism of the drive-in, freeway, and Cadillac tail fin to the structural innovation of opulent hilltop houses overlooking the ocean. Lautner was loyal to principles of Organic Architecture throughout his career. He distinguished himself from Wright with cinematic designs that earn him the title of “Hollywood’s favourite architect”.
