Voting extended to MONDAY to vote for Leslie & Aaron’s house as one of the 10 favorite homes in LA

I first wrote about “Leslie’s Kitschy Dreamboat Time Capsule” almost two years ago, and since that time, it’s become one of my most popular posts ever. And what’s not to love about this classic 1966 suburban LA ranch house that includes a conversation pit, big rock wall fireplaces and an amoeba-shaped swimming pool? And then there are Leslie and Aaron — who don’t take it all *too* seriously, filling the house with Moss lamps, peacock sculptures and light-up paintings… but who *do* take it seriously enough to have applied for and received historic certification for the house. They are great caretakers and surely, lovin’ the house they’re in.

Now, the house has been nominated in an LA Conservancy competition to name the 10 favorite residences of the Sixties. Hey, Retro Renovation community, let’s help them make the top-1o! There are 20 finalists, and they are all pretty darn cool. The reason I voted for Leslie and Aaron’s “The Kramer House” is that it’s… well, a family house. The write-up says, “the house displays a true cornucopia of popular architectural elements from the 1960s. ” Just like ours!
