After literally days of having a nearly functioning website, Photobucket is once again refusing show my images at full size. I'll restore them to their true size if Photobucket ever fix their problems! Images restored to fill size.

When I Googled Poppy Peak Drive, I found that there's a Richard Neutra designed house at 1540. When I found that there was a Richard Neutra designed house there, I wondered if Julius Shulman had ever photographed it - he did! This is
"Job 2332: Perkins House (Pasadena, Calif.), 1957". The house is in the eastern part of Poppy Peak Drive, which is not directly connected to the western portion where you'll find the Annandale Elementary School.
The house is almost on the street, and has the covered area on the left instead of garages.
The set also contains some color images. This one shows the large glass walls and the pond which goes from inside to outside.
From the view of earth through the window, I'm guessing that this is at the back of the house.
Lots of six-pointed stars in this hanging decoration.
A look at the living area in color.
And finally, here's the view from the garden. The set also has a few extra images, most of which were taken at night.

Today, the house would be easy to miss if you didn't know it was there.
