THE HOLLYWOOD RIVIERA

EDWARD FICKETT, 1954

1400 N. HAYWORTH AVENUE, UNIT 6 | WEST HOLLYWOOD

Designed by celebrated architect Edward Fickett, FAIA, the Hollywood Riviera is West Hollywood’s best-kept cinematic secret. Built in 1954 just off the Sunset Strip, this thirty-eight-unit mid-century modern building captures the golden-era optimism of postwar Los Angeles: clean lines, clerestory windows, an open courtyard, breezeways, tropical landscaping and a freeform pool that photographs beautifully in any light.

THE BENSON HOUSE

FEATURED LISTING

FRANK GEHRY, ARCHITECT

THE BENSON HOUSE, 1981

23685 clover trail | calabasas highlands

A rare piece of livable art with hillside charm and panoramic views by architect Frank Gehry. Early Gehry houses rarely come to market. These residential works predate Gehry’s global fame and offer an intimate view into the ideas that later transformed contemporary architecture. The Benson House stands at the intersection of California modernism, deconstructivist design and experimental residential architecture.
