Sinopsis

California es una incubadora del pensamiento tecnológico, multicultural, ecológico, y el amor por el aire libre. No debería sorprender entonces ver que su arquitectura encarna todas estas influencias en el diseño de sus casas. El diseño residencial del sur de California se define por un estilo propio basado en las estructuras de acero y vidrio, de líneas sencillas, pensadas para hacer frente a condiciones climáticas extremas.Más al norte se encuentra el gran atractivo de la arquitectura Victoriana ubicada en la ciudad de San Francisco. Casas donde sus exteriores son de madera, con ventanas altas y estrechas, y porche en forma de pórtico. Según Thomas Hines, la arquitectura moderna californiana “presenta un caso digno de estudio por actuar como consumidor y traductor de las arquitecturas modernistas desarrolladas en otros lugares, a la vez que el estilo se ve seducido de forma inmediata por el entorno y el paisaje, dando origen a la mejor arquitectura que se ha hecho nunca, para servir como un refugio contra los males del mundo y como un escenario para enfrentar y disfrutar de la vida.”

California is an incubator of technological, multicultural, and ecological thinking. It should come as no surprise then that their architecture embodies all of these influences in the design of their homes. The residential design of southern California is defined by its own style based on steel and glass structures, with simple lines, designed to cope with extreme weather conditions. Further north is the great attraction of Victorian architecture located in the city ??of San Francisco. Houses where their exteriors are made of wood, with tall and narrow windows, and a porch in the form of a portico. The houses featured in this book demonstrate the rich cultural synthesis found.
