Description
The Case Study House Triad (#23) was designed by Edward Killingsworth, of Killingsworth, Brady, and Smith, as part of a larger never-built planned community in La Jolla, Calif. House A was sited across the street and downhill from Houses B and C, which face each other across a shared driveway and motor court. Each house is sited so that it takes advantage of the view either towards the distant Pacific Ocean or inwards to a garden or pool. Each house in the Triad is different from the other two, though for economy and simplicity of building, the same materials were used in all three houses to varying degrees. The three houses were all built in 1960, and all three still exist today, though House B has been remodeled beyond recognition.
