Kaufmann house by Richard Neutra, obviously It's hard for me to go to Palm Springs and not stop by. Palevsky House (1969) by Craig Ellwood, More here . Edris House (1954) by E. Stewart Willams Palm Springs Art Museum Barbara Hepworth Alexander Girard Gio Ponti Billy Haines and Rudolph Schindler Claire Falkenstein Judy Chicago and Frank Stella Ed Ruscha Richard Diebenkorn I made it to the last day of the Diebenkorn exhibition. It was incredible. This is blurry because the guard was running towards me. I swear there wasn't a sign.

PS / Frey / Williams / Schindler

Palm Springs City Hall by Albert Frey, 1952 Source: Julius Shulman, 1952 via SFMOMA Former Palm Springs Boxing Club (originally the DMV). This is listed as an unknown architect? How could this not be Albert Frey?? It's the same screen as City Hall and the corrugated aluminum is classic Frey.   Palm Springs Unified School District by E. Stewart Williams , 1962     Marion Toole Desert House by Rudolph Schindler, 1946-48 I'm not sure if the gate is original, but it's cool either way.
