Rudolph Schindler Lovell cabin (Wrightwood, Calif.)

Dr. Philip Lovell was a doctor who commissioned multiple projects from Schindler, including his beach house in Newport Beach. This cabin in Wrightwood was to be a simple weekend getaway cabin for the doctor and his wife Leah and their family. The cabin was assembled using prefabricated panels with a flat roof and the structure only withstood one year of snow at its high elevation before it collapsed.
