	. : Craig Ellwood
		Craig Ellwood was the image of the architect, the Cary Grant of Architecture.

		Craig Ellwood (1922-92) - the Californian Modernist best known for his Los Angeles Case Study Houses and the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena - was a product of Hollywood.
		Ellwood demonstrated that architecture could be both simple and accessible and, in budgetary terms, attainable.
		Ellwood’s life and career are discussed chronologically, beginning with this early work in the post-war California building industry and ending with his retirement to Italy for a new start as a painter.

		While Craig Ellwood may not seem a likely candidate for such curatorial fanfare, a book on this early California Modernist is nonetheless warranted.
		Perhaps the highlight of Ellwood's practice in both architecture and brandmaking is his authorship of the modern house.
		Ellwood’s work follows the earlier beginnings of Rudolph Schindler and Richard Neutra and is directly related to John Entenza's Art and Architecture magazine and the Case Study House Program.

		More importantly, perhaps, Ellwood?s cultivation of the image of a talented designer that, shored up by the design skills of his associates, was not fully sustained by all the facts, long made him a difficult figure to study.
		Craig Ellwood?s office produced a coherent set of extraordinary buildings that, independently of the circumstances of their design, deserve to be looked at again from an historical perspective.
		Ellwood?s control of this monograph was not exceptional: all throughout his career, he carefully crafted his image by providing nearly all the photographs published in the hundreds of articles about his work.

	California Modern: The Architecture of Craig Ellwood
		Much is made of Ellwood's high living style but in the end the reader learns very little of how he lived except for the foibles of his mid-life crisis.
		Missing entirely is any description of Ellwood's sense of humor, his visual sensibility, his methods of communication within his office or personal details like whether or not he lived in a house of his own design.
		More than his associates and most of the architectural profession, Craig Ellwood knew how to create opportunities for good design and this is the critical distinction between those that rise to prominence and the 98+ percent of practitioners licensed (or unlicensed) that don't.

		The last of these, Ellwood, was the architect many young designers today would like to be, if only in their raunchier dreams.
		Ellwood had invented his form of lightweight, almost transparent, sun-filled architecture before he came into contact with his German mentor, Mies van der Rohe.
		Ellwood's creations were houses with film-star looks, on stilts on hillsides, jutting like piers into the sea, set low among palm trees.

	Architectural Review, The: Craig Ellwood. . - The Man Who wasn't There - book review
		Jackson asserts that while Ellwood, known as Mies van der Robe's heir apparent of spare steel boxes, was a master peacock in his polished ambitions, he never was the master of architecture the world acclaimed him to be.
		Ellwood was also cost estimator for the Eames House (1949).
		Ellwood appears to have taken it further in being quickly outstripped in talent and experience by those around him and even sometimes taking credit for others' work.

		The Art Center College of Design moved to the Craig Ellwood designed building on the 175 acre site overlooking the Rose Bowl in 1977.
		As part of the design process Craig Hodgetts led a charrette with fifty students acting as clients; the students decided on the site, a favorite student hangout with great views of the Valley and Pasadena, and the allocation of space.
		In order to be “liberated” from the Miesian coordinates of the existing building the architects developed a concept in which structural elements, similar to those employed by Craig Elwood, would be deployed to a new purpose.

		Ellwood was (like Barry) a "residential designer." He had impeccable taste, within the tenets of high modernism, had did a remarkable series of houses that were as elegant--as "high style"--as anything produced in the twentieth century.
		These works would have become comparable to the Villa Savoye or the Farnsworth House as historic icons, had they been more innovative or irreducably "pure" as conceptions.
		I'm a great admirer of Ellwood--even if his language now seems to have become a period style.
