Dr. Jennie Hirsh gave a fabulous overview of our wonderful California Modern homes. Some of her choices were not only those frequently featured by others which was refreshing.
These are all great architects about whom I knew very little. Jennie really pulls together so many aspects of this style of architecture revolving around the California lifestyle. Each of the designers are completely different but all join together with a common thread as Jennie explained.
Wonderful survey of important architects

I've watched several of Jennie's presentations on a variety of topics. Living in Southern California, I'm aware of the important modern architecture around me. Jennie presents her topics from many angles with historical context and makes interesting topics fascinating. This one did not disappoint! I will watch the recording again this week and I have a new one of Jennie's coming up the day after tomorrow.
