The Modern Californian Beach House

There is a new architecture book that has recently been published that has some really amazing photos of local Redondo Beach and South Bay homes and stunning examples of beach architecture. If you appreciate our local architecture and design, or you love someone who does, this could be the perfect gift or addition to your personal real estate library.

The Modern Californian Beach House from Images Publishing Group is written by local South Bay architect Pal Killen with San Francisco-based architectural photographer Russell Abraham. Killen documents some of his most loved modern designs (he’s been creating them in our area since 1984) and the pictures are stunning. Beach Cities newspaper The Easy Reader calls the book “an intersection of modernism, regionalism, and humor.”

With so many local architectural landmarks and such distinctive design styles, The Beach Cities are probably some of the most fun places in California to explore architecturally. We have so much history and such an array of architecture that fits all of our laid-back, sunny, and lucky lifestyle
