" Let's meet Nicole Weaver who has the education director here I nickel hi Bob -- tip first of -- why's it called holly -- house."

" Well it's called that because -- barn style the original owner of the house requested that right used an abstraction of the -- flowered to decorate the exterior and interior of the building can we see that everywhere including here under the freeze and correct Bob I don't know replying yes well Bosnia pillars supporting part of living -- about it is transitional designed for right. Correct he really was coming to this area with a fresh look he wanted to create something that was unique to the southwest."

" And he's already created the prairie style back in his own home to -- right up in here he's. Becoming enamored of Southern California and especially the mild climate that he was nice to working -- beauty of living indoors and out to. Yes I finally I how do you get end."

" I have -- Hispanic."

" Nicole -- we've got so much open land here and yet he approached the front doors so confining -- with the storm."

" Well Bob this really was one of rights primary building methods he would put some 100 confined space. When -- got to be exploding. Public spaces it would make huge increased dramatically and fairly compressed in here yes about the these -- the front doors -- aren't they are the original front doors Bob solid concrete and what an amazing 250 pounds each wow look at this beautiful bronze hardware government."

" And they have been here for welcomes the host of the house is built tell us about builder's -- collection."

" the original owner was a clean barn -- very wealthy oil heiress from the midwest -- she was interested and really making a cultural center for the surrounding neighborhood. Found this site and want to start in repertory theater company as well as having her own residents to -- really worked with her to achieve this plant yet in the design was really not just for a house but. A combination house -- correction house -- theater several other buildings. Let's start in the living room Bob it's really an amazing space. This is pretty spectacular space what's the size in this room roughly twenty by forty huge -- around and so she Natalie had him. We designed the hospital also all these furnishings actually she restrained him to only two rooms which I can imagine his reaction she kept into designing furniture for the living room and the dining room."

" Man tries at least --"

" It's not very count of."

" Now isn't this is the original stuff from this is not this is a reproduction of the original -- original set was taken out just after she left in 1927 to provide an exhibition space for incoming group because this was left to the community. Correct and so they use the space for exhibits like that's correct wow look at this this really catches your ID -- the bar relief it is it's quite dramatic and really takes your eyes over the fireplace ascension into the room."

" Frank Lloyd -- always loved to have the the fireplace be real focal."

" Point in the rules and to create kind of an ending an angle -- as it was -- that's true Bob his -- back if you look at the placement of the furniture within the ground. It's creating a very nice private space close to the -- fireplace that. Family -- close friends could enjoy meeting time and it breaks up this huge room it's almost like having one room. As you say within the bigger yes but what's what's the story down here that this is -- lustig a small mountain running around the fireplace. As of right love to designing with nature of the water around -- fireplace takes all four elements of nature into this space earth air fire of course water yes Linda what a wonderful cut."

" Now that the roof might at this end composes some really serious art at least I would call this serious ardent yankees it the the into the room you have these Japanese screens as they original."

" They are original to the house although not a specific place -- right was a collector of Japanese art and artifacts and he really enjoyed bringing this element into the homes he designed -- he was very passionate about yes."

" And what what about elements like this chair."

" For example this is one of the remaining original pieces in the house it has been very tall straight back at -- people CN right furniture he. And as you can see it is it is quite uncomfortable."

" It doesn't look terribly comfortable but I imagine it would be very good for your posture and in this. Actually does present as a writing desk here yes living so it is functional piece so what do we call these there's one at either end of this."

" I guess that the tall standing -- shares they were built into the furniture to really help ten next week. --"

" While personally catches my eyes the richness of the wood in here yes it's quite lovely. And this this is all originally designed by right for this room where this house yes indeed you can see the Hollywood hot motif. -- on the spine of this chair it looks like mahogany but it's that city isn't."

" It's not it's called -- stereo would -- treat called a want to cost that grows in central and South America. "

" And was it particularly popular would back there it was and a convenient alternative to mahogany little less expensive less expensive and used it. All over the place the paneling in the room exactly -- table. Now art classes and they -- governor frank Lloyd Wright house -- he's seen that he also incorporates these motifs he -- about the windows here."

" quite interesting not only do they have a beautiful pattern. But they're scaled specifically for the seat occupants of the table as you can see if you're sitting on one of those -- you have a beautiful guideline right after the drive right after the drive in the garden."

" Now one thing that I find odd is that. This is an elaborate house it to large house it's an -- lots of money."

" And the dining room small and is only room for six people at the table is really reflects the nature of the owner -- barn style liked to entertain on an intimate. Setting she only had a puke. Friends -- companions over to dinner. So she really wanted to smaller settings he don't half people -- strand -- table and right accommodated her wishes and best."

" Those beautiful room and of course is it California inside outside living -- these breakthrough here -- what's in this area here the courtyard Bob. All this is really dramatic space and a movement quite again the holly -- motif throughout here in this little call an aid now. We call -- a courtyard how would they have used this as living space."

" This -- really nice outside living space almost a parable to an outside living room he's not as you can see the space around it is usable as well. We do have access to rooftop terrace since coming right off of its interior courtyard. "

" Gathers no -- doubt in my mind's -- that there is definitely a Mayan connection -- yes many people picked at immediately after saying its building."
