The Hollyhock House was designed by architect
Frank Lloyd Wright for heiress
Aline Barnsdall in 1921. She disliked the house, and soon donated it along with the surrounded lands (now refereed to as
Barnsdall Park) to the city of Los Angeles in 1927.
The name
Hollyhock House was given to the structure due to the stylized representation of the
Hollyhock flower that Wright used as decoration along the outside.
You aren't allowed to take photos inside the
house, but I assure that it's definitely worth a visit!
