The Frey House, Palm Springs, 1963-4. Built by Albert Frey for himself, in the Desert Modern style he established in Palm Springs. I love this bedroom far too much. If you did that in Vancouver, though, it would leak. Top photo by Chimay Bleue on Flickr (click on photo). Bottom two photos are from Julius Shulman’s “Modernism Rediscovered” books, published by Taschen.
Oh my God, some people never heard about Feng Shui.
Breathtaking! I love the melding of landscape and architecture. It must be a delight to wake up in that house every day.
There is something brutally capitalistic about Feng Shui that makes me uncomfortable with the whole pseudo-science. I would love to have a large rock in my bedroom, but being in the UK it wouldn’t take long before it was wet, cold and slimy, so maybe not.
Even more amazing in person. I didn’t think much of it until I saw it in person.
What was the difference, do you think?
