San Diego Architecture: From Missions to Modern : a Guide to the Buildings, Planning, People, and Spaces that Shape the Region

Couverture
San Diego Architectural Foundation, 2002 - 336 pages
This volume is a pocket sized guide to the eclectic architecture of San Diego County. It includes color photos, illustrations, maps, and concise text that cover the many common influences and styles of San Diego architects and their art. Over the years San Diego's best architects have designed some of the most interesting buildings in the country, which are often overlooked by the national media. In just over 100 years, San Diego moved from missions to Spanish Romance, then to Irving Gill's primal modernism, followed by decades of fine post-WW II modernism. Recently, a new generation of architects has been quietly redefining regional architecture.
