{"product_id":"unseen-midcentury-desert-modern-chavkin","title":"Unseen Midcentury Desert Modern","description":"In 2008 Daniel Chavkin began photographing some of the more discreet and off-the-beaten-path midcentury modern homes and buildings in the Palm Springs area. These included secret gems created by such famous modernist architects as William Cody and John Porter Clark as well as others by relatively lesser-known designers. The result is this rich photographic collection of largely unseen examples of desert modern architecture. Many of the buildings shown herein are not easily accessible by or in some cases completely off-limits to the general public so the photographs in this book may be the only opportunity for midcentury aficionados to ever see some of these buildings. Daniel Chavkin is a photographer who lives and works in Palm Springs and Los Angeles. He began his career shooting celebrity portraits but his passion is for midcentury modern architecture‰ۥand especially the desert modernism of Palm Springs. His love of modernism was forged while studying at the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena California. He also owns the graphic design business Design Lab 2.\t\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHardcover:\u003c\/b\u003e 224 pages\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Gibbs Smith (February 9 2016)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781423642053\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 978-1423642053\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eASIN:\u003c\/b\u003e 1423642058\u003c\/p\u003e                                                                                    \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e    Product Dimensions:     \u003c\/b\u003e    10 x 0.9 x 10 inches    \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eShipping Weight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.2 pounds \u003c\/p\u003e    \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Architecture","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":30800511074392,"sku":"9.78E+12","price":48.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0266\/6217\/4808\/products\/61g4bwzpf2L.jpg?v=1570952403","url":"https:\/\/socialskills21.myshopify.com\/products\/unseen-midcentury-desert-modern-chavkin","provider":"socialskills21","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
