Storer House, completed in 1924 in Los Angeles’s Hollywood Hills, is one of Frank Lloyd Wright’s four textile block houses in the city and a striking example of his California experiments in concrete construction and Mayan Revival design. Designed for physician John Storer on a steep hillside lot in Cielo Vista Terrace, it adapted an earlier unbuilt Wright plan into a compact five-level, T-shaped house organized by terraces and stairs. Its most notable feature is its patterned concrete block system, joined without mortar. After later deterioration, an extensive 1984 restoration helped secure its recognition as a Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument and a National Register property.
