There were many photos from San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara. This photo is of  The Weekend House (AKA Bridge House), modeled after a Craig Ellwood design.

Iron: Fire dogs and a catch all Frank Bros box and George Nelson trays Inrepace ashtray In 1962, Gladding, McBean & Company merged with Lock Joint Pipe Company, forming International Pipe and Ceramics Corporation, or Interpace. Millard Sheets was hired as a consultant to Interpace in 1963. Big names in ceramics, like Harrison McIntosh, Rupert Deese, Jerry Rothman, and Dora De Larious were hired as designers for the company. Henry Takemoto was hired as a full-time dinnerware designer in 1969. Ken Price served as a consultant in the research & development group.  Sadly the building was demolished and it's now a Costco.  Before Interpace, the building was Gladding, McBean & Co's Los Angeles dinnerware and tile plant. Before that  it was Tropico Pottery Works. Tortured pot, Wayne Chapman plates, Bauer bisque planter.
