Why It’s Iconic:
Tucked into a Beverly Hills hillside, this concrete and glass masterpiece is part spaceship, part jungle hideaway. It’s been featured in The Big Lebowski, gifted to LACMA, and tweaked for decades under Lautner’s direction. Being there in person was surreal—the geometry, the views, the detail... it’s one of the wildest and most cinematic houses I've ever set foot in.
