In the late ‘80s, artist Beverly Doolittle and her husband Jay decided they wanted a house on their 10 beautiful, naked acres in Joshua Tree and they tracked down super-organic architect Kendrick Bangs Kellogg, who immediately fell in love with the site. Beverly tells the Desert Sun "He was jumping all over the rocks like a mountain goat. He had been looking for rocks to build on.“ The couple gave him free rein and in 1988 work began on this concrete, steel, glass, and copper house, placed perfectly naturally on the rocky site and looking from the top kind of like a ribcage.
The house was finished in 1993 but interior designer John Vugrin spent several years making "tweaks.” The Doolittles didn’t move in until the early aughts, but now they want to downsize and have already left for Utah. They’re selling this gem—perfect for the fashionable Bond villain—for $3 million.
