Trickery


Famous in Stage, Screen and TV....





















But, as one can see in the photo below, the cantilever by Koenig is not all that it's cracked up to be....














The house is, of course, a work of art...thanks to Pierre Koenig who mostly likely, unlike the structurally ignorant architects of today, Gehry and Danny Libeskind, could most likely do his OWN structural analysis....

Koenig also solved the glass box leak at the edge problem with overhangs as did two other justifiably famous California Architects, Wurster and Maybeck....

Philip Johnson had leaks, but if you are witty and have inherited Alcoa wealth,

who cares?
