In one of his earliest projects, Canadian American architect Frank Gehry “renovated” his home (1978 and 1994) in Santa Monica, California. He essentially stripped the two-story house down to its frame and then built a chain-link and corrugated-steel frame around it, complete with asymmetrical protrusions of steel rod and glass. He made the traditional bungalow—and the architectural norms it embodied—appear to have exploded wide open.
