Neutra VDL Studio and Residences, Modern residence and studio in Silver Lake, US.

Neutra VDL Studio and Residences is a modern home and architectural studio in Silver Lake featuring floor-to-ceiling windows, rooftop gardens, and sliding walls. These elements connect the interior spaces with small exterior gardens, creating a blend between indoor and outdoor living areas.

Richard Neutra built the VDL Research House in 1932 on a 60-by-70-foot lot beside Silver Lake Reservoir, financed by a $10,000 loan from Dutch industrialist Cees H. Van der Leeuw. A March 1963 fire destroyed the house along with Neutra's sketches, writings and architecture library. His son Dion rebuilt it on the original footprint under his father's oversight, with design changes; the property joined the National Register in 2009 and became a National Historic Landmark in 2016.

The residence functions as a teaching museum under Cal Poly Pomona's College of Environmental Design, allowing visitors to see how a modernist architect lived and worked. The space demonstrates the philosophy of integrating daily life with creative practice.

Tours are led by Cal Poly Pomona architecture students on Saturdays, and this is the only Neutra-designed house regularly open to the public. The entrance sits at 2300 Silver Lake Boulevard, a few hundred yards from the Neutra Office Building on Glendale Boulevard. The sloped walkway in front leads past trees to the dark-framed glass doors at the base of the facade.

The house was Neutra's third commission in the United States, built four years after the Lovell Health House in Los Feliz. It later anchored a cluster of ten Neutra-designed houses on Argent Place overlooking Silver Lake.
