Gehry Residence

Outline
The architect's own residence, an addition to a 1920s middle-class suburban house. The addition was constructed by assembling miscellaneous industrial materials such as corrugated iron, wire mesh, and raw plywood in an irregular form, while stripping away the original finishes to expose the underlying structure. The house does not have a finished form, but is an unfinished residence that the designer continues to live in while making modifications.
