Oscar Niemeyer, who was forbidden in the USA because of his commustist sympathies, has nothing to do with Case Study Houses. You mean Pierre Koenig or Craig Ellwood, I guess.

There’s no way that people interested in architecture and architecture news would have missed the fact that the Niemeyer house was famously auctioned off (furnished and Porsche included) a couple of years ago; http://la.curbed.com/archives/2006/10/pierre_koenig_h.php

Evan Rose, I couldn’t agree more. The materials are slightly different, but the overall composition is shockingly similar. Is this sampling or was Saitowitz hoping nobody remembered anymore?

The architect might call it an homage, but I believe this house is a blatant ripoff of Oscar Niemeyer Case Study House #21; http://www.dailyicon.net/2008/09/julius-shulman-photographs-case-study-house-21/
