1964, Juan Carlos Bertotto. 1234 Lawndale Rd., Fairway Oaks

Known more for his institutional projects, Bertotto designed this subtle house for a bank vice president. Standard midcentury features include a low-pitched roof with projecting gables, deep overhanging eaves, and exposed gable ends enclosed with glass. More unusual are the walls faced with rugged bricks and oozing mortar, long projecting vigalike beams reminiscent of houses in New Mexico’s pueblos, and an interior trellised courtyard.
