"Charles Jencks... published a book called The Language of Post-Modern Architecture... The term Post- Modernism caught on as the name for all developments since the general exhaustion of modernism itself... The new term itself tended to create the impression that modernism was over because it had been superceded by something new. In fact, the Post- Modernists... had never emerged from the spare little box fashioned in the 1920s by Gropius, Corbu, and the Dutchmen. For the most part, they were busy doing nothing more than working changes on the same tight little concepts, now sixty years old, for the benefit of one another."

Canyon Contemporary
Hollywood Hills
Jeffrey Daniels AIA, Architect
Raymond Chandler in the Twenty-First Century: A canyon hideaway in a contemporary design idiom. Rustic elements like exposed wood timbers, joists and trim, oak strip floors and cherry wood cabinets are juxtaposed with polished copper, Cor-Ten steel, expanses of white wall, skylights and butted-glass corners to convey a modern sensibility. Daylight fills even the garage, currently used as the architect's workspace. The informal kitchen/dining area has yard access. A sculpted metal fireplace with raised stone hearth is the centerpiece of a voluminous living space overlooked by a convertible studio/sleeping area with interior and exterior balcony. 2 private downstairs bedroom suites plus loft. 3 Baths. Plans for swimming pool.
