If you build it, they will come..and criticize

Tonight I'm going to a lecture by the Boston Society of Architects and the Boston Public Library on contemporary California architecture. There's a lot of interesting design going on in SoCal and it will be nice to learn more about how it evolved and where it's headed. I remember seeing some really good design, some really bad design and some stuff that was, well,....remarkable.

Here are some pictures of canyon houses around LA.

Major props for USC. Not only are they appreciating the excellent work of Higgypiggy, they've created an archive of materials from Greene & Greene, the MASTERS of Arts & Crafts architecture. I worship the ground that Greene & Greene trod upon.

More pictures of interesting buildings around LA.
