About the Book: Meet Rudolph Michael Schindler, the architect of Austrian origin who combined Cubism, International Style, and Californian Modernism into his "space architecture." Far ahead of his time, Schindler's radical approach remained unnoticed for decades. Today, his bold buildings are praised as milestones of modernism. This book presents Schindler's most important projects along with fabulous photographs, floor plans, and drawings.
