    Known for some of the most inspired homes in the LA area, my most memorable was the circular (octagon) home in the Sherman Oaks hills that actually rotated! You couldn’t enter the place unless the front door was turned to you! It was on a steep incline and was one of the coolest ever back in the early ‘60’s when it was built, I believe. This guy I think went through his apprenticeship with Frank Lloyd Wright way back in the day, as well.
