Abstract
AbstrctSchindler′s career reflects a strong commitment to theory and practice, a respect and appreciation for traditions of architecture, and a sharp wit to transform these lessons to local ends. Schindler searched for an architectural expression that would reflect the climate, landscape, and culture of Southern California. His reputation can be compared to architects like Alvar Aalto, Eileen Gray and Hans Scharoun, as noted in ′The Other Tradition of Modern Architecture′ by Colin St John Wilson.1 This paper examines Schindler′s principles that consciously shaped the design of his dwellings. Using Schindler′s own definitions, three programs are categorized in this discussion: locality, materiality, and views.
