A monument of the early modern movement of architecture in California, Richard Neutra’s Lovell “Health” House is a pioneering example of modern technology applied to the creation of a residential environment. The three-story, steel-framed structure provides a showcase for industrial materials and practices adapted to domestic architecture, including open web beams, prefabrication of components which were then transported to the site for installation, Gunite shot from pneumatic hoses onto the expanded steel frame to form the skin of the house, and modular sash adapted from those used in factories. Through its dramatic hillside site and exposed structural system, the house is a recognized monument to the International Style.
