Ellwood was trained as an engineer and had a passion for using industrial materials and construction techniques in residential architecture. As a result, Case Study House #16 exhibits a highly rational design and has an exposed steel structural framing, and floor-to-ceiling glass walls took advantage of spectacular views.
