The living room with concrete furniture OPEN HOUSE masterpiece An L.A. The Sheats-Goldstein House is one of


Los Angeles’s most well-known homes— and works of art. Here we get a rare peek inside. By Stephanie Cary


WHEN WE THINK of the most impressive residences in L.A.—and there are plenty— the Sheats-Goldstein House is definitely among the top spots. You’ve seen it in commercials, music videos and, most famously, as Jackie Treehorn’s home in The Big Lebowski, but there’s more to the abode than what we’ve seen onscreen. Its current owner, entrepreneur


James Goldstein, is eventually gifting the property to Los Angeles County Museum of Art, but it remains a (mostly) private space today—which is why Time Out Los Angeles feels so lucky to have been given a full- access tour of the property. Here are the five most jaw-dropping design and architecture elements you’ll find at the John Lautner–designed masterpiece.

The master bedroom’s retracting glass walls


Much of the house has glass walls, but two of them in the front corner of the master bedroom retract completely, offering cool breezes and an incredible view of Downtown Los Angeles from a built-in daybed. The glass walls are a signature of Lautner’s architectural style, blurring the lines between indoor and outdoor and opening the house to the property’s lush landscape.


A living room made of concrete (seriously) Likely the most recognizable aspect of the house, the living room’s couches, banquettes and dining room table are made of concrete and built into the


ground, rendering them an unmovable (and iconic) part of the home’s architecture.


Acres of tropical gardens The house sits on four acres that have been transformed into a tropical oasis with countless palm trees, birds-of- paradise and more. Floating stairs lead down to a moss garden, which has one of the property’s best views of the city. It takes 10 full-time gardeners to keep this landscape tame while still looking lush.
