- John Lautner’s rustic-modern cabin, tucked away in the San Jacinto mountains outside LA, is a classic example of organic architecture. In 1957, the Pearlman family used an unbuildable lot at Idyllwild to raise a bold dwelling that erases the line between inside and outside.
On the panoramic view side of the home, rough, unmilled logs act as structural support, but accompanied only by floor-to-ceiling glass, they become camouflaged with the surrounding oaks, cedars and pines.
Lautner (a disciple of Frank Lloyd Wright) went on to become world-renowned, but the Pearlman Cabin in the resort town of Idyllwild, was his first round house (even before his iconic Chemosphere (1960) or Zimmerman Residence (1968). Nancy Pearlman, who was 10 when the home was built, remembers it was her mother who wanted the round house to go with the round table as a centerpiece.
“It just seems so natural to me to have one big beautiful room,” explains Nancy, who says they’ve slept 25 on the floor, “It’s very rustic, but it’s very practical”.
Nancy’s uncle built the home while living in a tent. He only needed help with a few elements, like installing the massive windows and dynamiting some of the boulders to lay a foundation.

Im addicted to your channel, Kirsten. Like others have said, I appreciate that you don't add music and we can hear the natural sounds. I also appreciate that there isn't an intro, and you keep the focus on the home/dwelling/person being interviewed. Your children are also so respectful. I can only imagine how valuable it is to have this exposure to new places and people to their upbringing. Thank you, and I will always look forward to your content. Please never change!
Same! They are living the life I would love to live one day
Nancy is such a delightful, sweet soul. I love how good she is with the kids. Cool to hear all the house memories and glad she has kept the place up.
This is one of my favorite Lautner designs. His use of actual tree trunks for columns to support the roof and those big glass windows is what really make this "cabin" stand out.
She has so many great memories in that home. I hope that the cabin will remain in her family, there will be generations of stories.
I love that home owner ... she is so full of life
What a work of art. Thank you for showing us this. How rich your children are to experience such spaces. What good parents they have.

Uncle Bill is the real hero here

Exactly gov has to come in and over regulate just about everything.
@@mrjacktraeger There are reasons for regulations.
I can see how hospitable she is by the way she laid out the table with all the food and drinks. She had to make you feel very welcome. Jane, Philadelphia
When the best of the best are coming to visit you lay out the whole spread.
My very favorite interview of a beautiful energetic loving lady. You can tell she loves children. I hope she has grandchildren because they would sure love her. If I could choose any home you’ve shown, this one is my favorite, the very best.
What an incredible Uncle & Architect and Builder who left a beautiful legacy for the family to enjoy Nature.
Ok, the hidden wedge window framing is genius.
John Lautner. A member of the Holy Trinity of genius 20th century architects. This is my favorite of his designs, I bow down ❤
tha little title card .... "by John Lautner" wow! I love this MCM with rustic materials
It says a ton about him that he just sat on the land for a full day to get a bit of the feel of it! Definitely applause is due here for really tuning in.
Oh my gosh Kirsten what a beautiful production you made! I adore how your children engaged the host so much, she thrived off off their questions and they were genuinely interested in what she said, what wonderful people you are raising. She was like a garden fairy and a fire fly all woven together flitting around her forest home so happy to entertain and share this lovely space her parents created, I felt like I was there. So much happiness I’m moved emotionally by the beauty.
The videography you and your husband created is stunning!
Beautiful structure, and what nice lady showing it to us through you.🏡 😀
I especially appreciate that such interesting things got built for a time. It really was a special period until the 70s when wealth combined with a relative lack of zoning. Lots of wild safety violations in the homes featured on this channel. But there’s something special that was lost when zoning and building regs came into effect.
Kirsten, I appreciate how you lets us enjoy her great memories. Thanks.
Its great that the kids can and want to ask questions!
Странные вы американцы .
A don't know which I like better. The delightful lady of the wonderful house.
Kirsten I love your videos! Been watching them for years…
Thank you.
The cabin is so unique, the view to die for. I really appreciated how she talked with your kids. Thank you for sharing.
I love that this work of art is still a family vacation home.
Perfect. Aside from, the insulation problem. But if you aren't living there all the time you just need a good fire at times and then get into your sleeping bag. I would have loved growing up there.
I LOVE her energy!
When she walked into the home, she excitedly said, WOW! And the owner of the home was laughing with delight, understanding the impression the room makes on people. It is so beautiful, and I love the angles of the glass walls that face the forest. She is exactly correct, that it makes it seem like you are IN the forest. I absolutely love that room. I probably would have skipped a little into the room myself, delighted and not really knowing how to react. Kristen immediately sat down to enjoy the view.
I love this owner, because she loves the excitement of Los Angeles - I loved the 30 years I lived there - but also appreciates this quiet beauty in the mountains. I like the Lake Elsinore area, and I found a couple of lots that I could afford, but they too are unbuildable - too steep. It would cost a lot of money to build there, and I wouldn't be able to get much of a house and there would be no yard for my dog, unless I spent more money to have it terraced. So, for me, it remains unbuildable. There are some lots, okay, but not with a lake view.
I love the refrigerator - it fools you because one assumes there is an oven beneath the burners.
I'm so glad you went to see this house and that we can see it too. And, the owner is such a sweet woman who loves to laugh and is delighted with her home today as much as she has always been. It's really amazing.
Its weird that I don't know you, yet remember back before you even met your spouse. All the same, your channel retains a solid score for interestingness.
This place is stunning and luxurious on a heart and soul level.
Another great presentation. The owner was so informative and entertaining. Her childlike joy was contagious. It’s understandable since the energy/vibe of the residence is joyful, intimate and relaxed.
There is rarely such a thing as an unbuildable lot, only unrealistic expectations. Cool vision here.👍🍁🤙
Kirsten has an uncanny knack for finding the very best. This is the coolest treehouse ever.
Just LOVE the idea that Pete Seeger was there! This house is definitely not made of ticky tacky! (incidentally, I named my childhood invisible friend after that song, the idea that it has a connection to such a beautiful place makes it extra special)
John Lautner design shines. Great spot
What a cool lady,thanks for sharing your home😍!
So good I'll watch it a second time!
Ingenious! Finding a way to access the internal pipes in an aesthetic and creative way! I would live in this house in a heartbeat! Who needs separate bedrooms when you have those incredible views, cocooned by those trees and enveloped by those warm earthy tones, under a circular-featured ceiling! I am in love!!
Okay, this is a seriously unique (and wonderful) home.
I am a huge mid-century modern fan and this is a beautiful place.
I could certainly live there happily full-time, but I already live in a mid-century modern home that I love. (It's just not round.) Thanks for this wonderful tour.
I love the way she engaged with the children -- giving them guessing games like "where is the refrigerator?"
What a unique home 🏠. Love those views of the forest. Wow mind blown🤯 Thanks for sharing this video.
This is a really good tour of the home with the owner and you with your kids there. Extra nostalgia and excitement from the tour guide. Excellent care of their Masterpiece 😎
Wonderful space and sweet memories. A perfect episode.
A 1963 record player? I was born in 1963. lol That's amazing.
Very cool, especially for its time.
What a marvelous house! I lived in Julian CA for a while (south of her) and my in-laws had a home from the same era. Many houses up in those mountains were built as vacation homes. She is so dear - making it fun for the kids!
I love Idy!! I go as often as I can. I'd live there if I could!
Beautiful!!! Production. Kirsten your family is beautiful❤
Wow, I’m not sure who I love more. The wonderful home, or the adorable owner! Thank you Kirsten et family xx
Это один из самых необычных домов, которые я пока видел. Спасибо !
You’re one of my absolute favorite content creators Kirsten.
Appreciate you and the Family!
🙏
What a place!
Uau que show de casa e de estilo de vida essa senhora foi e ainda é muito privilegiada, e Kirsten continue essa saga de descobrir histórias e moradias fora da caixa...viva la vida. Sou o David do Brazil, viva la vida, com toda essa loucura de inversão magnética, mas seguimos....
Beautiful surroundings for the very unique home! WOW!
WOW!!! What an incredible “cabin”. Those picture windows set into the tree trunks is brilliant! It truly gives the feel of being outdoors.
I live near Idyllwild and the people who live/vacation in the mountains always have the most interesting stories! ❤❤
Another fun video! Thank you both for bringing the world of fascinating architecture to YT.
This is a wonderful build and a wonderful hostess! Thank you so much for the stories and histories of this place!
My dream has always been to build a round house, but I LOVE the wall spacing mimicking being in a forest with trees. Awesome!
Thanks for sharing so we can also enjoy the fruits of your labor and those that had the vision and tenacity to make a dream ad reality.
Your kids are getting so big! Time flies
I love it so much
Your mom and her brother
were genius …it’s just so special
Just wonderful … I thank you for sharing 😘…
Incredible.
Wow. That's a great place.
I agree, one room, open concept is perfect. I'd want to upgrade the kitchen, but that's it.
What a peaceful place, thanks
I am a complete and utter Lautner-maniac. Thank you for this!
If anyone needs more Lautner, this home was also featured recently on the Open Space channel.
I'd like to know more about the architecture, especially how the ceiling, roof, and supports were constructed.
Love it , God bless 🙏
This felt like going to my grandmas house.
Nice sharing Vidio.. very inspiring and useful.. always succses 🇮🇩🙏🌸👍
Thank you for sharing❤. This is the most beautiful/unique home I have seen. Great memories 😊
Beautiful home, perfect for the location, great that it is south facing for the winter sun and amazing view.
Thanks for sharing. My favorite trip up Mt Jacinto is from Palm Springs, up the aerial tramway. What a rush, and an extreme temperature change from the desert floor to the station on the peak
Such a delightful cabin. Who wouldnt want to vacation there 😊
Wow! Absolutely beautiful!
So fabulous. Love it all!
My life experience tells me that one room is plenty enough.
Wow!! That is AMAZING! 🤩
Incredible!!!
What a wonderful place ❤
What a stunning house 👏
Love! Love! this home ❤❤
Wow. What a story. Those windows between the tree posts are killer. Absolutely killer. I’d love to see the contraption she uses to clean them. I’ve never met anyone who had cool windows in their house that didn’t eventually invent something nifty to clean them with. lol
Great video as usual.
What a great place to vacation as a child or adult : )
what an uncle
How beautiful!❤
ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL !
I watched the whole video with a smile!
Those windows... ❤
Thank you for this. As a builder I learned a couple things that may inspire a custom home
That is my kind of camping.
♥️♥️♥️ this wonderful cabin!
Special place!
Love this... so disheartening america is now ruled by money and regulations, and its hard for innovative people to build creatively
Voilà une dame particulièrement intéressante. J'aime son intérêt pour la jeunesse, sans doute parce qu'elle est jeune elle même :-)
Awesome use of land. Many rural houses in Jamaica are like this. However this building reminds me of a study project in conservation I did a CU called the Strutt House in Quebec. You should visit through the school. The architect was James Strutt.
I happen to love it just the way it is why do anything any different to it
Beautiful 😊 Best yet 😊
COOL!!!! Do take care. Fl.
PENSACOLA’S FORGOTTEN TREASURE: THE ROUND HOUSE - John Lautner designed a house for his cousin Ernest Lautner and Ernest’s wife Mildred in 1958. Ernest was a builder by trade and Pensacola wasn’t exactly next door to John Lautner’s office, so John left the construction entirely in the hands of his cousin. The Lautner family still lives there.
Beautiful!❤
