Kramer House

 

In the Kramer House, Richard Neutra accommodated the needs of his clients: a doctor and his family. He set a guest room, which could serve the doctor when night calls threatened to disturb his wife, with easy access to the car. Both rooms offer views of a curved pool as well as the surrounding landscape, an arid expanse of desert. Throughout the house there are many opportunities to move between indoor and outdoor areas with terraces and patios, while a windbreak made the exterior spaces more inviting.
