Wallace Neff: Architect of California's Golden Age

by Alson Clark

At last, here is a reprint of the major monograph on one of California's most distinguished and influential architects. Wallace Neff was responsible for many of the houses that have become icons of California domestic architecture. Many of his houses used Mediterranean vernacular touches, but they all bore the stamp of Neff's own particular design genius. Well-illustrated with color and black and white photographs, plans, and renderings, this book is an essential addition to the library of anyone interested in how California's domestic architectural vocabulary came to exist.
