If you do Hollywood houses you must do the Brady Bunch house. We grew up looking at that thing. Sherwood Schwartz ( the producer) picked that house because he thought: “ that looks like a house where an architect would live”. The Brady Bunch house is the second most photographed house in the United States.

Not wood siding on chimneys, It’s all vinyl siding! Now it’s not really a chimney, it is a little bump out that contains a zero clearance gas fireplace. The bump out has its own little roof.
Makes me think cheap, cheap, cheap.

Great point about the windows and savings (not).

Some people are bird watchers and some are architecture
watchers. To me, a mid/mod house that was made with care and taste is a joy, partly because they are rare, in most plces. Sometimes, they were merely pedestrian to begin with. I think it would be possible to cozy up a good one while respecting the design intent, but it would require skill. The "Glass House"? It's fun and intriguing and beautiful, but I don't think it's supposed to be taken seriously. It was an elaborate stunt, like William Shatner going on a space flight.

I tried to find this majestic intro. song, but I wasn't able to. Does anyone know where/how to find this awesome introduction song? Brent Hull is my hero!

I remember being in school during the Cuban missile crisis and the air raid sirens would sound and we were told that if we got up under our desks that we would be safe what a lie. And, I remember the ads for bomb shelters.

A mic for the audience would help us better understand the Q&A back and forth.

Louvered windows made sense in Hawaii (if you don't put in air-conditioning).
