From the Wikipedia article

Temple of Wings is a historic Greco-Roman style private estate located at 2800 Buena Vista Way in the La Loma Park neighborhood of Berkeley, California. The main structure was designed by Bernard Maybeck and completed by A. Randolph Monro. It was originally designed as an open-air private home dedicated to modern and contemporary dance. It has been listed by the city as a Berkeley Landmark (no. 173) since January 6, 1992, and is listed in the California State Historic Resources Inventory. It is sometimes referred to as the Temple of Winds, the Boynton House, and the Charles C. Boynton House.

Background

History

Temple of Wings was originally the home of attorney Charles Calvin Boynton, his wife Florence Treadwell Boynton, and their eight children. Florence Treadwell Boynton was "California's chief exponent of rhythmic gymnastics," and promoted "open air motherhood," a parenting philosophy that maximized children's outdoor time. She was a childhood friend and admirer of Isadora Duncan. Boynton created a home and a dance school that reflected Duncan’s philosophies. It was originally designed and constructed as a Greco-Roman colonnaded open-air private residence for the Boyntons by architect Bernard Maybeck in 1911.
