Known as "the bible" to Los Angeles architecture scholars and enthusiasts; Robert Winter and David Gebhards groundbreaking guide to architecture in the greater Los Angeles area is updated and revised once again. From Art Deco to Beaux-Arts; Spanish Colonial to Mission Revival; Winter discusses an impressive variety of architectural styles in this popular guide that he co-authored with the late David Gebhard. New buildings and sites have been added; along with all new photography. Considered the most thorough L.A. architecture guide ever written; this new edition features the best of the past and present; from Charles and Henry Greenes Gamble House to Frank Gehrys Disney Philharmonic Hall. This was; and is again; a must-have guide to a diverse and architecturally rich area.

Five StarsBy Linda BrittonLook the book.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Lots of pictures and ideas; but not detailed how to instructionsBy kris-tina a.wilsonInteresting book with lots of colored pictures. I was looking for more of a specific "how to" book. For example; she talks about making gathers in fabric and fastening with a rubber band; but wasnt specific about how to do it. Its a nice book to have; but internet is probably more helpful.
