You may not know LA's Sheats-Goldstein Residence by name, but chances are, you've seen it in "The Big Lebowski,""Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle," or on Instagram. Rihanna even held her 27th birthday party there.
Designed by influential Southern California architect John Lautner in 1961, the modernist mansion has become so iconic that it's now recognized as a work of art. James Goldstein, a millionaire who has owned it for 35 years, announced earlier this year that he plans to donate it to Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA).
According to the LA Times, Goldstein will live there for the rest of his lifetime but is already allowing the museum to hold limited, ticketed tours. He said he hopes the house will serve as an educational tool for young architects in the future.
