The last surviving Airform house by legendary architect Wallace Neff is hitting the market in Pasadena for just under $2 million. Built in 1947 by spraying concrete over an inflated balloon, this one-of-a-kind dome was part of Neff’s vision for affordable, futuristic housing — a dream that never caught on, leaving this sole survivor. Now restored with care, the one-bedroom main house plus a 1,000-square-foot studio (planned as a separate dwelling) boasts original curves, modern upgrades like hidden AC and Wi-Fi, and a refreshed bathroom. Owners, who bought it last year for $1.675 million, prioritized preserving the structure, sealing moisture, removing intrusive additions, and restoring the clean, sculptural look. It’s a light-filled, solid-feeling architectural marvel — a living sculpture ready for its next chapter.
