It is casestudy not case fyi . John Entenza started the prototype housing series from his Arts & Architecture periodical. It was a great broadcasting vehicle for many of southern california contemporary architects from koenig, ellwood, soriano,nuetra to killingsworth, who designed one up on mount soledad(the only san diego casestudy house long since bastardized). The relationship between CS #21 and the board is slim; sure the board has a saarinen like quality to it's whiteness and curving line, agreeing with some of the house's furnishings, but I would imagine, Schindler's Pueblo Ribera,right up the street from the pumphouse, has a stronger analogic connection. Schindler's design was hard to photograph and understand, without experiencing it in the fourth dimension, time. It was then that its loose corners and spaces were revealed. His ex partner(they shared a building that Schindler designed up on kings road, in hollywood)Neutra received a lot more glory at the time due to his architecture being more photogenic and better able to legibly display, their mutual viennese desire, to lessen the distinction between indoor and outdoor space, in the balmy socal environs. It was only much later that Schindler's depth and dynamism was appreciated. That said I have seen a sepia toned photographic of Pierre with a kookbox?
thanks for the correction...going off addled memory. No relationship to Simmons design? Hmmmmm. Whimsy. Kookbox didnt even exist when Casper was built...and it certainly has nothing to do with anything you see on this blog. Forgive me for my shortcomings...I'm an 11th grade drop-out. Thanks again for the depth of your commentary on the casestudy houses, architects, etc. I have a print of Carl Ekstrom standing in front of Pueblo Ribera as a five year old.
are you kidding? i dont know what a kook box is? surfed one. the context seemed like it meant a new brand of the same name. please anonymous. you are not that superior, at all.

Wrong Kook Box. The name Kook Box comes from the first fin’d surfboards designed by Tom Blake in 1929 or early 1930.
Try Google.
