Dr. and Mrs. Howard Matlock House
Neutra adapted his aesthetic to accommodate a pitched roof for this home. The house is laid out in a Z-shape, which placed the children’s and the parent’s bedrooms at opposite ends of the form.
Adapted from Neutra – Complete Works by Barbara Lamprecht (Taschen, 2000), p. 250.
