Reviews
Not only are California's courtyard neighborhoods thoroughly documented, but Polyzoides et al thoroughly explain this housing typology, its evolution, and its finer points.Whether you have a casual interest in California history, or a need for deep professional understanding of the architecture, I think you will be delighted by this book.I should also mention that Stefanos Polyzoides, one of the authors, has a firm in Pasadena which has recently produced some exceptional courtyard buildings to add to this lineage.
