Description
Architect Irving J. Gill (1870-1936) is widely considered the first and preeminent California architect of the Modernist era. This book looks at the life and architectural achievements of Gill, with brilliant photography by Marvin Rand. Gill’s own writing (excerpted from The Craftsman (1916)) describes his architectural and design philosophy.
An important addition to the library of any serious scholar or fan of Gill, California architecture, Arts and Crafts, modernism, or turn-of-the-century development in building.
