Book Club


A new Arts & Crafts style book is in the works.  Penned by Tina Skinner for Schiffer Publishing, with photographs by Steven Whitsett, numerous West Adams area interiors are to be featured.

While authors Jane Powell and Paul Duchscherer have mined the rich West Adams vein, typically the territory is bypassed for Pasadena, owing to laudable civic promotion, masterworks by the Greenes, and likely a bit more "whiteness."

Los Angeles though boasts nearly ten times the number of Craftsman residences as Pasadena, and excepting those vanguards the Greenes, as many exceptional works.  West Adams, get ready for your close up!

Stay tuned for a release date.
