The Gordon & Hilred Goetschel Residence, Ray Kappe 1954
The Gordon & Hildred Goetschel House (1954) by Ray Kappe, represents his first venture into single-family residential design.
Located in the serene Verdugo Woodlands, this mid-century marvel demonstrates Kappe’s innovative approach to spatial expansion and integration with nature.
Featuring horizontal redwood siding, unpainted masonry, and expansive glass walls. The home exemplifies a seamless blend of indoor and outdoor spaces.
This residence stands as a testament to Kappe's early work, embodying both his architectural vision and lasting influence in modern design.
“In the recent restoration, I meticulously preserved Kappe’s original vision while modernizing essential systems and updating the pool.”
