On of my favorite modernist homes, the Dunham House is situated in a park-like setting in one of Pasadena's most exclusive neighborhoods. Located at 495 Madeline Drive (best seen from Stonebridge Drive),
During his long and distinguised career, Maston designed more than 100 buildings, including private residences, apartment buildings, shopping centers and large-scale institutional projects. After graduation from USC, he worked for several established architectural firms, including A. Quincy Jones, Fred Emmons, Phil Daniel, and Allied Architects. After World War II, he returned to Los Angeles, opening his first office in Beverly Hills. In 1946, he designed the Pandora Apartments, marking the beginning of his experimentation with garden apartment design. In 1954, Maston completed his portion of the quintessential California apartment complex, the National Boulevard Apartments (Maston designed one building, architect Ray Kappe the other). Among his most noted accomplishments are the Cal Poly Pomona College of Environmental Design, and the Creative Arts Building at the California State University, San Bernarino.

Maston designed the house for himself and his wife in 1962. The three level house is set into a 45-degree angle hill, preserving the natural hillside setting while the house serves as its own retaining wall. A windowless wall on the lower level serves as a base for the glass-walled top floor; the front door, located at the rear of the parking area leads to a stairway to the living quarters.
Designated a Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument (No. 668) in 1999. Located at 8707 St. Ives Drive. Please do not use this image in any media without my permission. © All rights reserved.
