SOLD OUT! The Anderson Residence with Alan Hess
Home tour, Rancho Palos Verdes
Saturday, November 16, 2024

Join SAH/SCC for a tour of Anderson Residence (1959, Aaron G. Green) led by architect and author, Alan Hess. The Anderson Residence is located in Rancho Palos Verdes.

One of Frank Lloyd Wrights most talented and original disciples, Aaron G. Green ran his own distinguished practice while serving as Wrights West Coast representative from 1951 until the elder architect died in 1959. The Anderson Residence is one of Greens finest works - an important and almost entirely intact example of his Organic Modernism.

"True, there is a roof overhead, and there are walls and mullions supporting it," Curtis Besinger wrote for House Beautiful magazine in 1963, "But these do not seem so much to shut in and contain the space as to shelter it, give it definition, and suggest its use. The inside and outside have been conceived and planned as one continuous area." While deeply influenced by Wrights work and teachings, Green exhibited his own masterful and expressive architectural vocabulary in the Anderson Residence.

Alan Hess is an American architect, author, lecturer and advocate for twentieth century architectural preservation. This event is limited to just a few participants, so reserve your ticket now!

The Anderson Residence with Alan Hess, Saturday, November 16th, 2024; 1:00 PM PST; $30; Pay via PayPal. No mail-in sign ups are available for this event.
