Mid-century Modern House with Triangular Roof Plane by Rodney Walker

It's really the amazing majestic mid-century modern house! Modified hexagon in plan, the house is sheltered by the unique triangular roof plane. This is a dramatic look, even though in terms of architecture, as an unforgettable masterpiece and becomes the part of the modern architecture's history itself. An era in which sprinkled the stars of the architecture legends, from Wright to Mies, and Rodney Walker has his own honorable place. He was a great mid-century modern architect, but he prefered to call himself as a designer and found creativity as a builder, a sweet modesty or even a paradox?

The mid-century modern house is the Walker Residence was built by architect Rodney Walker (Photography by Scott Mayoral, we recommend that you directly visit the official website: walkerresidence.com), who specialized in residential architecture in the Southern California area. Again, we would like to emphasize on another paradox, Rodney Walker was not a nobody. He is well-known modern architect who created the three Case Study residences (16,17,18) are internationally known and celebrated, but at the same time his personal home is virtually unknown! In fact, the Walker Residence is one of his very significant masterpiece. The images below will prove its greatness without words.

This mid-century modern house is situated at the very beautiful hilltop which affords 270 degree panoramic views on the west side of the Ojai Valley in California. The 4.300 square foot house highlights transparency supported by curtain glass walls and mobile glass panels and features large open living space with 17 foot high ceilings, 4 bedrooms, 3 baths, and  exposing triangular roof design. However, the uniqueness of the equilateral triangle in this kind of architecture, has also been utilized by Frank Lloyd Wright in many of his designs that use a modular system of equilateral triangles.
