The Andrew Cowper Lawson House is a historic private residence at 1515 La Loma Avenue in the La Loma Park neighborhood in Berkeley, California, U.S..[1] It has been listed as a Berkeley Landmark (no. 15) by the city since August 16, 1976.[2]

It was designed by Bernard Maybeck for British geologist Andrew Cowper Lawson.[1] It is located directly on the Hayward fault, and was designed to withstand earthquakes (with the knowledge of the time).[3][4] The house resembled a "Pompeian villa" made of reinforced concrete that was covered in colored stucco that has sgraffito and inlaid tiles.[1][5] The Lawson house was only one of two houses to have survived the big fire in 1923 because of its materials.[6]
