"Before and After: Born Again Neutra\nThe Nesbitt House Reworked for Pippa Scott\n\"Richard Neutra chose to enter the property from the far end and lead you through the garden and along the face of the house to the dark protected front door,\" says interior designer Barbara Barry, who updated the 1942 Nesbitt house in Los Angeles for film producer Pippa Scott.\nJulius Shulman's early 1940s photography captured Neutra's atypical use of brick.\n\n\"We washed every vertical plane in the living room in sage green for a seamless transition between house and garden,\" says Barry. \"Horizontal planes were kept textured.\"\nMuch of the original brick in the study was plastered over.\n\"I thought it was too rustic in this setting,\" says Barry Scott, who continually rotates her art collection, placed Plage Gris by Maurice Brianchon over the fireplace.\n\"The old master bedroom became the bath,\" says Barry.\nLandscape architect Thomas Batcheller Cox turned the fern-filled grounds into a riot of palm trees and exotic plants.\n\"Gardening is a language that eludes you if you don't speak it every day\u2014and I don't,\" says Scott. A 1983-85 untitled work by Robert Motherwell is in the living area."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
