A Love Letter to the Place I Call Home

The Palm Springs issue truly has a special spot in my heart. I’ve been a full-time resident in the area for five years now, and I’m inspired every single day by the incredible nature and architecture right outside my door. Sure, I marvel at the iconic custom-built homes that we all know, like the House of Tomorrow and the Kaufmann House, but what really means the most to me are the architectural treasures found in our everyday public spaces. Perusing books at the Palm Springs library is also a chance to be inside a William F. Cody building. Escaping to the cooler temps in the San Jacinto Mountains via the Aerial Tramway showcases the designs of Albert Frey, Robson Chambers and E. Stewart Williams along the way.
