This book establishes R.M. Schindler's Kings Road House amongst the icons of modernist housing--as crucial as Le Corbusier, Walter Gropius, Mies van der Rohe, or Frank Lloyd Wright to the story of twentieth-century residential design.

These essays will interest both scholars and practitioners of architecture as well as readers wishing to learn more about the development of architectural modernism in general."--J.
