In Beautiful Losers, Curbed documents the great Los Angeles architecture that can't seem to find the right buyer. Previously: John Lautner's Schaffer Residence. Nominations to the tipline please. Click here to view the full photogallery. [Photos by Elizabeth Daniels] Somehow, designer Rodney Walker's old personal residence up in Ojai manages to be both dizzyingly lovely and nearly invisible--there's so much greenery and glass in …

Click here to view the full photogallery. HISTORIC CORE: Last week, the Farmers & Merchants Bank Building in the Old Bank District hosted 2013's Canstruction LA, where architects pull out all their best kung fu to make elaborate structures out of cans (which are donated to the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank at the end of the show). The event ended up …

For the first time this year, Canstruction LA will be held Downtown; it'll be open for viewing during the Downtown Art Walk tonight and during the day tomorrow. Local architects have created six structures (almost) entirely out of canned foods, which will all be donated to the LA Regional Food Bank after tomorrow's awards ceremony (last year's entries are here). For …

It's the last week in December, when according to tradition we make up a bunch of awards and hand them out to all the best, worst, and shitshowiest of things that happened in Los Angeles real estate, architecture, and neighborhoods this year. These are your 2012 Curbed Awards. [Photo by Elizabeth Daniels] Top 7 Most Mindblowing Home Tours 7. Designer and artist Millard Sheets's …

LA is full of lovely architecture, but some streets are particularly blessed. Like Silver Lake's Micheltorena, for instance, which is home to John Lautner's famous Silvertop house, but also to scads of other modern and not-modern houses of note. The street runs through the Moreno Highlands, a much-coveted area originally developed in the 1920s and '30s by silent film star Antonio …

[Rendering of exhibition via Kickstarter] Starting in March, the A+D Architecture and Design Museum will host Never Built: Los Angeles, an alternate history-fest showing the "visionary works that had the greatest potential to reshape the city," but never got the chance. Curators Sam Lubell and Greg Goldin spent two years researching and "have unearthed countless untold stories and hundreds of beautiful yet …

These perfectly lovely Palm Springs photos are from the institute's new archive devoted to the work of prolific mid-century architect William Krisel, by the equally prolific photographer Julius Shulman. …

Click here to view the full photogallery. Albert Frey was the father of the Desert Modernism style and one of the small handful of architects responsible for Palm Springs's sexy mid-century look (he designed the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway station, the Tramway Gas Station, Palm Springs City Hall, and the North Shore Beach and Yacht Club at the Salton Sea). Last week …

Click here to view the full photogallery. Oscar Niemeyer, perhaps the last of the real modernist architects, died yesterday at the enviable age of 104. He's best known for his work on Brasilia, a whole-cloth Brazilian capital city built in the late 1950s, but he did design one house in the US, "where he was long banned because of his leftist political …

WILSHIRE CENTER: Get on your walking shoes because tomorrow night is the monthly Wilshire Center Art & Architecture Walk. The self-guiding tour runs from 6-10 p.m. and includes stops at restaurants, galleries, and historic buildings clustered around Wilshire and Western--you can even visit the LA offices of the American Institute of Architects, located in a tower on Wilshire.

This is the Rustic Canyon home of Ray and Shelly Kappe, designed by architect/SCI-Arc founder Ray back in 1965 and finished in 1967. The Santa Monica Conservancy held a tour earlier this fall and we returned again recently to make sure …

Click here to view the full photogallery. Photos by Elizabeth Daniels The Schaffer Residence in the Verdugo Hills is probably best known now as the house from Tom Ford's great-looking movie, A Single Man; it's one of architect John Lautner's most understated designs, maybe, but it's also one of his most elegant. The 1949 house has been on the market for more than …

The brothers at USC's Phi Sigma Kappa obviously agree--their mid-century house on Greek Row has just gotten a sexy contemporary remodel from Mass Architecture, reports the LA Times. Gone are the bongs, graffiti, …

Image via A/N Morphosis (and principal Thom Mayne) is one of the most interesting architecture firms in town these days, so of course we've been dying to get a look around their new Culver City offices--the firm ditched Santa Monica last year for a new Expo Line-adjacent property. The Architect's Newspaper checks it out and informs us that this is actually "the …

WEST HOLLYWOOD: The corner of Melrose Avenue and Norwich Drive will be temporarily pleasant-ed up this weekend as WeHo's Long Range & Mobility Planning Division hosts an open house and demonstration of its work on the streetscape master plan for the Avenues District. They'll be "transforming a corner of Melrose Avenue into an inviting space, one that will demonstrate how the …

SANTA MONICA: Ah, the architects are hard at work remaking offices all over town--this one for an animation house in SaMo's Industrial Corridor is by Gwynne Pugh Urban Studio. The project reinvents a 1940s "bowstring truss and brick warehouse"--according to a release, "The centerpiece is the 'Cube' which houses a screening room, two editing rooms …

ARTS DISTRICT: Apparently Wayne Enterprises designed this year's SCI-Arc graduation pavilion? Seriously, this thing is actually called "League of Shadows." It was designed by faculty members Marcelo Spina and Georgina Huljich of the firm Patterns--they competed against three other faculty member teams for the graduation-pavilion-designing rights. The pavilion, which seats 1,200, will be built in the SCI-Arc parking lot for graduation …

MIRACLE MILE: It's fun to think about what the Downtown federal courthouse will look like, or the Broad Museum on Bunker Hill, but let's also not forget about the smaller projects that keep architects in business.
