Richard Neutra’s Brown Bel Air Residence

Leonard Rabinowitz November 1, 2024

A politician was recently asked “What mistakes have you made in life?” Below is what would have been high on my list.

When I arrived in California, decades ago, from New York and built up my worth to be able to afford a nice home, my then Real Estate Agent toured this home for me. I was young and knew nothing of Neutra.  I came back with a young architect to discuss some changes. He looked at me and said, “This is a Richard Neutra and I’m not touching a thing”. 

More educated, now I can reflect on how foolish I was not to jump on a purchase of this home.  

Here we are in 2024, and I’d like to share with you a video of this incredible home by one of the great architects. The Sidney and Sonja Brown Residence by Richard Neutra’s and beautifully restored by Marmol Radziner.
