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 architecturemdash;and 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.

You get 14 very simple designs that you cannot color but are meant to be a preview of the real book. You also get a link to download the images from 12 other books. These are the same books that you get when you purchase a Kindle coloring book from Speedy Publishing.
