| Summary: | Through Kelley’s eye, lens and postproduction choices, however, it advances the very way that buildings can be photographed and understood, allowing us to visit residences that most of us will never see in person. The photographs also demonstrate that these projects are quintessentially Californian. Their emphasis on open plans, airy modernism, the indoor-outdoor relationship, natural textures and color-palette and an intensive attention to landscaping are also quintessentially Los Angeles. The buildings, which are the creations of some of the world’s most renowned architects, are inspired and inspiring. They are luxurious, aspirational and visually exciting. The book is both a valuable contribution to architectural history and a pleasure to read. |
