Backlot Suburbia: A California Story
The story of California – the influence of its émigré architects during the 20th century and its important position in developing the ‘cool’ mid‐century modernism that was to become so fashionable around the globe – cannot be underestimated. Craig Hodgetts, architect and academic, and founding half of architectural practice Hodgetts+Fung, looks back at those heady days and the evolution of Los Angeles as an architectural mecca.
