The Self-Taught Architect Who Became the “Modern Maverick of Malibu”

6 of 8

Dubbed Ravenseye House, this cinematic home was designed by Harry Gesner in 1997 for American playwright Jerome Lawrence. The 30-foot-high vaulted ceilings were reportedly inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright’s Wayfarers Chapel in Rancho Palos Verdes, California, and the expansive wall of glass is designed to frame sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean.
