Famed Canadian architect Frank Gehry has only created 28 single-family homes during his storied career. One of them -- a five-bedroom, five-bathroom stunner -- is now on the market in Los Angeles.wedding chair rental kelowna According to Architect magazine, the four-building mansion, known as The Schnabel House, was built by Gehry between 1986 and 1989 for former ambassador, Rockwell Schnabel. The estate is marked by Gehry's love for geometric shapes, with trapezoidal interiors and exteriors that showcase various shapes. The home was also once owned by producer Jon Platt, who renovated the estate with Gehry's approval and sold it to another producer, Michael LeFetra, for $9.5 million in 2013. LeFetra is now asking $10.5 million for the famous mansion, according to Redfin, after originally listing it for $11.995 million in December 2014. Take a look at the architectural marvel in the photos below

Dubbed the Tuyomyo (Spanish for “yours and mine”), the chair’s first run will be auctioned off, with proceeds to go towards the Hereditary Disease Foundation, in memory of Gehry’s deceased daughter, Leslie Gehry Brenner.
Currently there are no mass production plans, but Emeco says that it might use the production methods in a piece TBD. It is a technical marvel: A whopping nine feet long, it weighs just 122 pounds, thanks to specialized lightweight manufacturing techniques borrowed from the aircraft industry. And it’s probably the most direct translation into furniture of Gehry’s recent building aesthetic. That’s been a common thread for Gehry in particular.  In 2004, also for Emeco, he designed the Superlight Chair, that can carry 750 pounds but weighs just 6.5 pounds itself. It’s both handcrafted–natural variations in the polishing are visible in every copy–and high-tech, utilizing a hinge that allows its seat pan to flex independently of its frame: Much like Tuyomyo, Gehry translated the raw forms of works like the Guggenheim Bilbao into an outdoor line for Heller: But the crossover between Gehry’s buildings and furniture is older than that. In the 1970s and 1980s, Gehry first rose to fame by scavenging low-cost industrial materials, and cheekily using them for avant garde architecture–the most famous example being his own house in Santa Monica.
That in turn led to his cardboard furniture series, still being produced today, which took that same approach of finding unconventional uses for familiar materials: Few architects have been quite as successful as Gehry in pulling off the crossover to furniture. It’s not an easy task: Forms that might be monumental and eye-popping at a large scale can often look fairly banal when reduced to the size of a chair. One example is Zaha Hadid, whose furniture, though shiny and sinuous, comes off as a bit one-note, especially compared to her architecture. It doesn’t help that the pieces cost hundreds of thousands of dollars: Meanwhile, Greg Lynn, one of the leading lights of “blob architecture,” managed to create this regrettable chair for Vitra. I’ve actually seen this one on sale at 1/3 the retail price–with exactly zero takers: Another example is Peter Zumthor, recent winner of the Pritzker Prize, who went small scale, and in 2006 designed a pepper mill for Alessi.
