Description
Steven Ehrlich Houses presents sixteen homes that embody the fusion of modernist principles with the cultural and contextual nuances of their surroundings. The author's extensive travels in North and West Africa had a profound impact on his design philosophy, as he was deeply influenced by indigenous vernacular architecture. This experience is reflected in the houses he has designed in Southern California and the Southwest, which share commonalities such as generous volumes, visual clarity, and a connection to nature. Each of these homes represents a new beginning, an opportunity for learning and creation, with distinct spatial experiences that reflect Ehrlich's commitment to modernism.
