From the agent: “Art Center College of Design was at the center of Don and Sally Kubly’s universe; both as alumni, and later when Don became the second president of the institution. At the time, the couple was deeply embedded in the creative fiber of midcentury-modern Los Angeles. Attracted to the iconoclastic personality of Craig Ellwood, and cutting-edge work of his firm, the Kublys selected Ellwood to design a modern residence to house their growing family. The resulting post-and-beam structure proved fitting for the Pasadena neighborhood where his contemporaries, several of them also Case Study architects, practiced their craft. Residence includes 4 bedrooms, 2 baths, and a swimming pool.”

Although Ellwood preferred working with steel, the prominent Los Angeles modernist built the Kubly House using a wooden frame in order to meet budgetary requirements." layout="" credit="Courtesy of Crosby Doe Associates" photoUserId=""/>
