[@Gavin_Harris]

The way he talks about his home. Everything he learned about the people that built the house. He has passion and respects the history of it. What a pleasure to listen to him speak about it

[@josephlevendusky7136]

Without a knowledge of the history around us, we would be walking around half blind. Erik and Mayumi's consciousness is rare but should be more common.

[@christiannn94]

So much character, the textures, the lighting...Homes had such a impact back then. So warm and inviting. I hope when im older there will still be houses like this.

[@ciprianogonzalez7254]

and, they lasted. They’re still here.

[@SF_Native]

They will. For a few million probably.

[@Svenne_Kloppe]

This wood paneling interior, the spacious layout inside the house, the old Californian Beetle with its roof rack, the trees, the exterior of the house, the neighborhood, the sunlight, and the blue sky are so 70s. This time capsule is what I love.

[@lewyk51]

What a gem, and a wonderful couple...perfection.

[@BrettBowlin-c9c]

Floor to ceiling glass is a feature I have always lusted after.

[@soniatriana9091]

This couple truly are the perfect people for this home! They love, appreciate, & value its entire history & know how to enjoy its offerings!! I hope their children get to inherit it - in the future because they know what it’s like to live there & they know/ understand it’s incredible history. & value!! Thank you for sharing - this is a very nice video tour!!

[@josephlevendusky7136]

Erik and Mayumi, blessings upon you for being such thoughtful and responsible custodians of an architectural treasure. May you reside there in peace and happiness. Hopefully you will be able to pass it on to folks who are just as mindful. The studio and bell tower are amazing features.

[@james.00]

beautiful, love this guy's perspective & energy

[@jamesallison4875]

Magic house. The lady’s oriental zen spirit is a perfect complement to the design. I’m totally feeling the vibe.Thanks!

[@kaitlinmeadows6273]

Love the quiet dignity, the clear light, the clean lines, and the enthusiasm of the owners to preserve its integrity!

[@awr2217]

Truly a timeless forever home

[@johnmccadden7121]

A truly beautiful home, lovingly preserved, as old as I am, with seemingly as joyful a life.

[@rebeccacartier153]

I wish this guy had talked to Chris Pratt an Katherine Schwarzenegger who just demolished that classic Elwood home. Homes and architecture like these need to be preserved and cared for. This is such a cool interesting space

[@julietphillips1991]

I love this house, I like listening to him speak of the house and I understand and appreciate the need to keep the studio pristine...personally, I wouldn't allow even family to stay there.

[@shepherdmazvese-lb1nj]

i feel peace watching this tour

[@johnnyokeeffe6577]

Absolutely stunning home. It is my dream to live in a home so warm, inviting, and unique like this one.

[@Mira-zq1ox]

So beautiful!

[@OddJobFix]

I worked on that house when Mr. Youry's daughter had it. His foot kicked potter's wheel was in the garage. I loved the pebble shower floor in the studio. Convinced?

[@greytogray6070]

Wow. Love this house, full stop. What a perfect couple to shepard this architectural treasure into the future. Congratulations to them. Bonus points for a beautiful cat who only adds to the period perfection. Great video. Thank you for featuring.

[@blakeaaron5698]

What a tremendous find... I kept pausing the video and stuttering back to savor various frames.

[@richardschulz6797]

I love the large spaces and the large windows in these homes.

[@craigadams4143]

Very serene! If I was fortunate enough to live there, I'm not sure I'd get much done because I'd be blissed out all the time.😂 The VW bug just completes the total aesthetic.✅

[@justaguy6862]

Beautiful. Thanks for sharing your space. Your house truly is a home. I'd take this over any of the new monster, suburban homes being built today.

[@7th_CAV_Trooper]

That glazed addon makes me happy.

[@cj22cj]

a really beautiful house! so nice that these wonderful people are caring for it the way they do!!!

[@danceofjimbeam]

love everything about this

[@gonzaloalbertogutierrezher9960]

me too

[@michelleotani8901]

I could watch this over and over again! Such a peaceful vibe, this is a dreamy beautiful home that has the perfect couple to care for it! Bless you!

[@beatlesfansam]

What a cool and unique home! I found the studio to be the most interesting part of the home - what a wonderful look and vibe to it. I also love all the natural light throughout the rest of the home. In addition, Erik was wonderful to listen to - he is easily one of my favorite homeowners from this series.

[@9half76]

Simply perfect!! Us who live in LB love our historical homes...

[@scipionyx]

@4:44 it such a nice time capsule, it encompasses all the aspects of the room but as if its frozen in time.

[@PaulaDTozer]

Love the love that the owners feel about their space. That’s part of optimal living - loving life and loving the space in which you live it.

[@philip-q7m]

G'ah! All the lines of this home pull you into the negative space in such a terrifyingly appealing way. lol. It's mezmerizing. Beautiful in its deceptive simplicity. It's fun how this home can seemingly play against nature with its mid-century "modernity" and yet its inherent openness, in truth, embraces nature lovingly and sets it free to play in its midst. We rarely embrace this level of simple humility in the face of nature when designing living spaces in the present. These homeowners are blessed. Great video. :)

[@ourfriendsinthenorth]

The light..!

[@MaiyahJimenez]

I love Long Beach. We tried to get a cliff may also but there were so many overbids. But this is a lovely home. Thanks for sharing.

[@rneustel388]

I don’t think that I’ve ever seen a house that moved me as much as this one. Thankfully it’s current owners see its value and treasure it!

[@Kofi.86]

The bell is a very spiritual thing the sounds bells makes connects with our chakra

[@MURDER_WITH_A_V]

That living room at dusk, I’m begging you. 🖤

[@MrPhotodoc]

I'm puzzled why builders don't make homes like this anymore.

[@JbushBush]

Profit over all.

[@_cohen]

Nothing but junk being built for 3x the cost. A shame…. I respect old crafts and the old original ideas. I hope one day to build my own smaller mid century modern home

[@rebeccacartier153]

People want their McMansions

[@socalstr]

There’s a gorgeous new build eco-conscious mid-century development in Desert Hot Springs, CA. Nobody is buying them.

[@kgb4187]

@@socalstr The whole project of 20 homes is up for auction, $5 mil with no bids yet

[@isaacnsue17]

What a gem! I had to pause the video a few times, to appreciate the details and enjoy myself. A beautiful house with incredible light. I love the entry/editing of the video, for a moment it reminded me of any beginning of the episode of Fargo by the Cohen brothers. Glad to listening to him speak of the house and understand it and put in value. These houses must be preserved, it is not only architecture, it is knowledge and history.

[@mrfoo12emily]

Incredible! We live in a Cliff May (the ranchos near you) and I have been finding so many great examples of modern houses with architects I have never heard of here LB. What a special house! Thank you for sharing it.

[@sunnysidevpa]

Beautiful Home! I love how you used mullet to describe it! Business in the front, party in the back!

[@darien33]

Es una casa personal, atractiva y hermosa. Sin pretensiones y honesta, para vivirla.

[@billger5710]

A wonderful home with wonderful spaces and you totally nailed the kitchen remodel... seems like that is the way it's been from the start.

[@hieroglyph321]

The beautiful beetle is the icing on the cake 😘👌

[@robertoposa1120]

Just fantastic - could move in - in a split of a Second - huge congratulations to all involved architects and the owner for this piece of art

[@mr.seanster]

Beautiful house and beautiful story behind the house. Thanks for sharing.

[@Lulusvideos1]

This is so beautiful, it took me back in time. Such a serene space to come home to after work, or being out all day. It reminds me so much of my cousin’s houses in the 70’s, I always loved the wall paneling and interesting windows. People decorated with so much more color back then.

[@melindadouglas1673]

Fabulous home! I love everything about it!

[@chrissstttiiine]

jaw droppingly stunning

[@noahlapuz3853]

All my favorite colors and natural light is in this home!

[@suzetteesteban5659]

Beautiful home! Thank you for sharing.

[@silvergirl7810]

Wow- gorgeous! So glad you got it and brought the best out of it as well as preserving it!

[@nikip9161]

A beautiful and classic home. ❤

[@Tuckerz5d]

So great, thanks so much. So fortunate this house found owners who really appreciate and enjoy it.

[@dianebig7857]

I grew up in Los Altos, not far fromMillikan High School. thank you, so much, for sharing this story. I certainly recognize the exterior design of the front of that house. Much appreciated.

[@MyCharlestonLife]

You are so incredibly blessed. What a dream to have. Like many others Frank Lloyd wright is my obsession and I live in an area where we do not have mid-century very far and in between. And you had a very good realtor. And this is coming from a 30-year veteran here. Congratulations on your beautiful home.

[@valerijohnson2839]

Love this house and the thoughtful owners.

[@krisbaker9427]

Well done. Love your house. Thanks for sharing.

[@robertgreen7926]

Such a pleasant and well made video. It's a charming house and I really enjoyed the owner's narration.

[@larrynelson3329]

Beautiful. Glad it has the right owner.

[@1bwash]

So stunning and it has a ton of history but without feeling pretentious.

[@cristobalv]

I love the Bell Tower, it fits perfectly with the house.

[@SolidKnight64]

The way the living room has two floor to ceiling/wall-to-wall windows that let light in all day through sunset; and have lights on the OUTSIDE of the ceiling to illuminate the living room from the outside in is the most indoor/outdoor romantic subtle design achievement I have ever seen.

[@Youtube_ban_me]

i have to admit this house is pretty damn near perfect

[@newearthtarot888]

I just bought Paul Tays home not too far from there!! It’s beautiful, I fell in love and knew I had to have it the very first time I laid my eyes on it ❤

[@kathyhoskin8350]

Thank you. What a wonderful home to share with us!

[@martinschofield5465]

That’s was a good little surprise 😎

[@1abioye]

Beautiful.

[@sparky3156]

Good house, great owners, nice to have it appreciated. But best is seeing the original Max Bill Olympics poster again along with other works of his. It was always my favorite of the entire series of 1972 posters. (I have the Vasarely.) And a Black and Orange CA license plate on a real VW bug - the kind where your fingers can touch the windshield from the steering wheel! How did you get that personalized?

[@theresiabetty7696]

Woww kerennnn....pengen punya rumah kayak gitu❤

[@SourianteOrange]

It is a really beautiful place. Thanks you

[@gamby16a]

Finally watching this, as I missed it in my feed. Bravo on yet another video where the owner has a car of interest! Super interesting home with the merge of different eras. Also nice that they weren't giving off the usual nepo baby vibes that so many of this type of video (not usually Open Spaces tho) give off.

[@ΧαριλαοςΣαγματοπουλος]

Beautiful house.Liked and tried to find the music,too...

[@meowijuannacats8542]

I love ❤️ everything on your beautiful home so classic with style love those trees 🌳. We had a beautiful tree on the front of our current house. Almost 2 years ago a young teenager was intoxicated drunk & sinceour house is right in front of a stop sign in our neighborhood well he didn't stop 😳 went straight full speed broke our beauty tree instantly. The goid thing he was ok but what get so mad was the fact that if our tree was not there his car would of wwnt straight to my sons room front window. Thank god he was not there but because of that accident we decided to look for another houses. Safety is first so now we are trying to pay it off as soon as possible with houses right now r way too high on price yes we live in California & will never leave California

[@jimihendrix1575]

Cool '59 bug. I have two '61 buses, a double door panel and a double-cab pick-up.

[@crazywisdom2]

This house is Spectacular !! Love this ......

[@detroitculture.]

Incredible place….. id love to go to a party there for sure.

[@MsPzeng]

Love it!

[@farginargle]

One word that sums up the house: divine! What type of flooring is in your kitchen? I need to replace my flooring and this looks perfect.

[@Sisa61]

Beautiful! So calming

[@aarondrew4861]

Awesome. I give this house 5 bags of popcorn.

[@janejdough2230]

thank you

[@crsantin]

Wonderful home. People don’t need more than this regardless of how much money they have.

[@66edm]

Love the video, LOVE the kitchen. Any idea who did the kitchen?

[@mgw5377]

Beautiful back yard. Wish I was able to have a backyard like that but my house sits on a hill and has been a struggle to make it enjoyable.

[@motorsportvalley]

This home is a vibe

[@7verse]

Marvelous 👏👏

[@edwardduarte7393]

This is cool.

Sweet home ! 🌴
