  • Mid-Century Modern and Florida Tropical Architecture Emily Mason College of Design, Construction and Planning, University of Florida
    ISSN: 2683-0668 ____________________________________________________ Rufus Nims: Mid-century Modern and Florida Tropical Architecture Emily Mason College of Design, Construction and Planning, University of Florida Faculty mentor: Vandana Baweja, School of Architecture Abstract Mid-century modern architecture developed after the Second World War as numerous technological advancements allowed for open house plans with the increased use of glass and a reconfiguration of indoor-outdoor relationships. Rufus Nims, a Miami architect (1913–2005), hybridized emerging ideas of mid-century modernism with climatic design that emerged in the field of tropical architecture after the Second World War. Nims experimented with homes that had disappearing walls; and that could be comfortable in the hot and humid climate of Florida. This paper will analyze Rufus Nims’ role in the development of Florida Tropical Architecture, through his seamless integration of indoor and outdoor spaces. Further, this study will assess how Rufus Nims used tropical architecture strategies in South Florida, such as screened-in porches, disappearing walls, and landscape integration. The paper argues that Rufus Nims’ architectural ideas were based on an emerging redefinition of the indoor-outdoor spatial relationships as was evident in the broader mid-century modern movement and Florida Tropical Architecture. Introduction Mid-century Modern In Europe, the modernism movement began after the First World War with a need to industrialize the building production process, minimize the cost of construction, and provide a livable home designed for human habitation.1 Architects from Germany including Walter Gropius, Marcel Breuer, and Mies van der Rohe came to America during the 1930s at Harvard and changed Harvard’s emphasis from Beaux-Arts Architecture to Bauhaus modernism.

  • 3 Term—Day—Time: Spring 2021—Tuesdays—10:00Am-12:50
    TOPICS IN MODERN ARCHITECTURE IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA ARCH 404 Units: 3 Term—Day—Time: Spring 2021—Tuesdays—10:00am-12:50pm Location: ZOOM Instructor: Kenneth Breisch Office Hours: Tuesdays—2-3pm or by appointment Contact Info: [email protected] (I will respond to emails/voicemails within 24 hours Monday-Friday, and on the Monday following a weekend or holiday break) Class Assistant: Ani Mnatsakanyan Contact Info: [email protected] COURSE DESCRIPTION There are few regions in the world where it is more exciting to explore the scope of twentieth-century architecture than in Southern California. It is here that European and Asian influences combined with the local environment, culture, politics and vernacular traditions to create an entirely new vocabulary of regional architecture and urban form. Lecture topics range from the stylistic influences of the Arts and Crafts Movement and European Modernism to the impact on architecture and planning of the automobile, World War II, or the USC School of Architecture during the 1950s. LEARNING OBJECTIVES By the end of this course, students will be able to: 1. read and interpret architectural plans, sections and elevations 2. Identify major periods of development and architects in the history of Southern California architecture, planning and landscape design from prehistory to the present day 3. Critically analyze the relationship between architectural or landscape forms (sometimes identified with the idea of style) and the cultural, political and economic forces that shaped them PREREQUISITE(S): Students in this class come from a broad range of disciplines, some of whom will have a background in architecture, but this is not necessary to take this class.

  • City of Palm Springs
    City of Palm Springs Department of Planning Services Memorandum Date: August 24, 2020 To: HSPB From: Ken Lyon, RA, Associate Planner Subject: Case HSPB #83 – The Palm Springs Racquet Club 2743 N. Indian Canyon Historic Resources Report dated July 14, 2020 Dear Board Members, In 2017, the HSPB voted unanimously to recommend that the City Council designate the Palm Springs Racquet Club as a Class 1 historic site. The recommendation was based upon a historic resources report written by the John Ash Group in 2004. The property owner had the property listed for sale and requested the City Council Public Hearing be postponed. The property is still for sale, however at its September 2019 meeting, the HSPB again requested staff to prepare the HSPB’s recommendation for City Council consideration. Given the length of time since the Ash Group’s report was completed in 2004, Staff commissioned a professional services firm to provide an updated analysis and report about the site to determine whether, in its current condition, the site is still eligible for consideration as a historic resource. That report is attached here for your consideration. Recommendation: Direct staff to schedule a public hearing of the HSPB to consider the updated report and determine whether to re-state its previous recommendation or to establish a new recommendation to the City Council for possible designation of the Palm Springs Racquet Club as a historic resource.

  • Aluminaire House Coming to Palm Springs Skip Descant, the Desert Sun 3:30 P.M
    Aluminaire House coming to Palm Springs Skip Descant, The Desert Sun 3:30 p.m. PST February 17, 2015 (Photo: Provided photo) The Aluminaire House — a 1930s era architectural installation — is coming to Palm Springs for permanent residency in the city's soon-to-be-developed downtown event space. The location is just across the street from the Palm Springs Art Museum. "I can honestly tell you: It is coming," Mayor Steve Pougnet told several hundred supporters of the project during a weekend fundraiser at the Palm Springs Visitors Center. "Actually, we raised enough money. It will be leaving New York, and it will be coming to Palm Springs. It will be staying at the Palm Springs city yard until our site is prepared and the restoration can begin." The party, known as "An Evening for Aluminaire," was part of Modernism Week, a 10-day Palm Springs festival celebrating the region's rich history in mid-twentieth century architecture and design. The Aluminaire House is an architecture exhibition piece designed by famed Palm Springs architect Albert Frey and A. Lawrence Kocher, managing editor of The Architecture Record, back in 1931 for the Allied Arts and Industry and Architectural League Exhibition. The two men were both disciples of the Bauhaus design movement, which was popular in Europe at the time. And they wanted Aluminaire to explore the use of prefab modern materials like aluminum. The home has been packed away in a crate in New York while officials here worked to raise the money — estimated to be about $600,000 — needed to bring the home to Palm Springs for assembly and display.
