Architectural Pottery was a Los Angeles company founded in 1950 by Max and Rita Lawrence. After seeing a display of work created by design students of La Gardo Tackett, a professor at California School of Art, the Lawrences decided to start the company. They invited Tackett to lead the design. Malcolm Leland, John Follis, Marilyn Kay Austin, Raul Coronel, Paul McCobb and David Cressey would also create forms for Architectural Pottery. The vessels became incredibly popular with top modernist architects from around the country.
