Albert Frey: Inventive Modernist
A comprehensive volume on Swiss-American architect Albert Frey, whose "simple but severe" style of Desert Modernism cemented his legacy as one of the most influential architects worldwide. Inventive Modernist tracks the scope and significance of Frey's career, from his early days in Paris working with Le Corbusier to his rise as the iconic architect of Palm Springs.
