Film Short: The Corey Residence, Jack Corey (1954)
-By Mick Aure

Built for his parents while still a student at USC and later used as his personal residence, this early design shows an astonishing level of skill and sophistication from the young architect. Corey's version of California modernism displays the influence not only of his studies under Cal Straub at USC, but also his deep appreciation for the work of Frank Lloyd Wright. He quickly became a practitioner of wooden post-and-beam architecture, evolving its design along with his mentors to influence architecture locally and beyond.
