LA Landmark "The Ennis House" by Architect Frank Lloyd Wright

 Located in Los Feliz, The Ennis House was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright and built by his son, architect Lloyd Wright Built in 1924 for retailer Charles Ennis and his wife Mabel. The house was included as one of the top ten houses of all time in Los Angeles Times, in a survey of experts in December 2008. The house and chauffeur’s quarters span roughly 6,200 square feet and were constructed of more than 27,000 concrete blocks; all made by hand using decomposed granite extracted from the site. The house is the last and largest of the elder Wright’s four Los Angeles-area “textile block” houses which feature patterned and perforated concrete blocks that give a unique textural appearance to both their exteriors and interiors.
