Working with the home owner and landscape architect, Statement Design finalized plans, fabricated, and installed a seven-piece, semi-permanent concrete lounge installation inside of the Garcia House on Mulholland Dr. in Los Angeles, CA (seen in video at 1:40).
Designed in 1962 by architect, John Lautner, The Garcia House (also known as The Rainbow House) is a private home in the Hollywood Hills of Los Angeles, California. In 2020, landscape architect, John Sharp, commissioned STATEMENT DESIGN to engineer and fabricate a custom concrete banquette couch to be installed in the seating area in the middle of the “rainbow.” Located on Mulholland Drive, the Rainbow House sits on stilts 60 feet above the canyon below. Recognized for its parabolic roof over stained glass windows and a curved ceiling that rises to 30 feet in height, it has been described as "one of the 10 most important residences from the midcentury period in Los Angeles."
