Description
Palm Springs Modern Houses in the California Desert showcases the iconic homes of midcentury modernism, designed by renowned architects such as Neutra, Frey, and Lautner. This book explores the impact of these designers on the desert oasis, primarily from the 1940s to the 1960s, and features glamorous examples of modernist architecture, including the residences of prominent figures. With insightful text, contemporary color photography, and celebrated archival black-and-white work, this volume captures the distinctly modern allure of America's desert playground.
