Entenza House, Modern residence in Pacific Palisades, California, US
The Entenza House features steel frame construction with a 36-foot-long living room, floor-to-ceiling glass doors, and an open floor plan design.
Built between 1945 and 1950, this residential structure emerged from the Case Study House Program initiated by John Entenza to create affordable post-war housing.
The design demonstrated shifting architectural priorities of the 1940s through its emphasis on indoor-outdoor connections and adaptable spaces for social gatherings.
The 1,600-square-foot residence contains two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen, utility room, garage, and an integrated living-dining area with mountain views.
The metal framework of the house remains hidden behind wood paneling, distinguishing it from other Case Study Houses that display their structural elements.
