Reseñas en medios

“Los Angeles’s modernist architecture is defined by the city’s climate, opulence and clash of cultures…Thomas Hine’s new Architecture of the Sun: Los Angeles Modernism, 1900-1970 (Rizzoli) is a thorough study of the work of Schindler, Neutra, Wright and the inimitable John Lautner. It is also a study in fine living. Chilled cocktail, anyone?” ~Playboy

"If you coveted the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed Ennis House in Los Angeles we wrote about last year, but didn't quite have the $15 million asking price, you should pick up a copy of Architecture of the Sun. The weighty tome, being published later this month by Rizzoli for $95, focuses on Los Angeles' many fine modernist masterworks built from 1900–1970."  ~Luxist.com

Description: "An authoritative survey of the masters of twentieth-century modernist architecture in Los Angeles.
