For California Citizens! For Non-California Citizens!

Like much of America, Palm Springs experienced rapid growth during the post-WWII era, with suburban subdivisions popping up like wildflowers across the desert landscape. The once-sleepy town became a regular stomping ground for Las Vegas high rollers and Hollywood moguls looking to get away from the big-city lights and enjoy a more serene lifestyle. Such was also the modern-day case with Chris Bond, who, after building a thriving career as a visual effects supervisor in the film industry, longed for a home in Palm Springs as a place to decompress.⁠

Still, Hollywood royalty Bob and Dolores Hope received the house they knew would reflect their status and be a head-turner too. ⁠

If getting your garden ready is at the top of your home improvement to-do list, let’s add a tiny detail above that—figure out your climate zone.⁠

More and more, it seems, new construction has Mid Century Modern enthusiasts collectively mourning the loss of their favorite vintage buildings. While increasing density continues to threaten many of these structures, there’s one neighborhood in West Vancouver, Canada that boasts apartments that take cues from Miami Modernism. The neighborhood is notable not only for its architecture but also for preserving it as long as it has.⁠
