Book Synopsis California Design, 1930¿1965 Living In a Modern Way by : Wendy Kaplan
Download or read book California Design, 1930¿1965 Living In a Modern Way written by Wendy Kaplan and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2011 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first comprehensive examination of California''s mid-century modern design, generously illustrated. In 1951, designer Greta Magnusson Grossman observed that California design was "not a superimposed style, but an answer to present conditions.... It has developed out of our own preferences for living in a modern way." California design influenced the material culture of the entire country, in everything from architecture to fashion. This generously illustrated book, which accompanies a major exhibition at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, is the first comprehensive examination of California''s mid-century modern design. It begins by tracing the origins of a distinctively California modernism in the 1930s by such European émigrés as Richard Neutra, Rudolph Schindler, and Kem Weber; it finds other specific design influences and innovations in solid-color commercial ceramics, inspirations from Mexico and Asia, new schools for design training, new concepts about leisure, and the conversion of wartime technologies to peacetime use (exemplified by Charles and Ray Eames''s plywood and fiberglass furniture). The heart of California Design is the modern California home, famously characterized by open plans conducive to outdoor living. The layouts of modernist homes by Pierre Koenig, Craig Ellwood, and Raphael Soriano, for example, were intended to blur the distinction between indoors and out. Homes were furnished with products from Heath Ceramics, Van Keppel-Green, and Architectural Pottery as well as other, previously unheralded companies and designers. Many objects were designed to be multifunctional: pool and patio furniture that was equally suitable indoors, lighting that was both task and ambient, bookshelves that served as room dividers, and bathing suits that would turn into ensembles appropriate for indoor entertainment. California Design includes 350 images, most in color, of furniture, ceramics, metalwork, architecture, graphic and industrial design, film, textiles, and fashion, and ten incisive essays that trace the rise of the California design aesthetic. of wartime technologies to peacetime use (exemplified by Charles and Ray Eames''s plywood and fiberglass furniture).

Download or read book The Architect and Engineer of California, Vol. 22 written by and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-08-26 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Architect and Engineer of California, Vol. 22: August, 1910 B. Leonard, and the architect, Albert A. Farr, both of San Francisco. The contractor's superintendent is W. A. Mann. The city of Piedmont invited four engineers to submit plans, in competition, for the above crossing, in accordance with profile sheets prepared by the county engineer. The structure described below was chosen by the board of trustees of the city of Piedmont for its artistic features, and by the board's engineers for structural stability. When completed, this bridge will have one of the longest reinforced concrete arch spans on the Pacific Coast, the plans calling for a span of 130 feet in the clear. The total length of the bridge is 362 feet 10 inches, being composed of the arch above mentioned and an approach at either end. The roadway is 22 feet wide, with an additional 6-foot sidewalk on either side. The arch is 2 feet 4 inches thick at the crown, and tapers to about 4 feet 6 inches at the haunches. It carries an earth fill held laterally by thin spandrel walls designed as horizontal beams, and carries, also, a 6-foot sidewalk on each side, bracketed from the spandrels and tied to the rib by reinforced buttresses. The arch is reinforced both longitudinally and transversely by billet stock steel rods with mechanical bond. The stress sheet for the arch, made graphically by the elastic theory, combines the effects of vertical loads, temperature, and rib-shortening. Reference to figure 3 shows that the thrust line for the vertical loading alone is within the middle third of the arch throughout and, theoretically, no steel is required for reinforcement. Slight tension may occur for a limited length under the combination of loading, rib - shortening, and a range of tempera ture of 40 degrees Fahrenheit. The maximum compression at any point for all conditions is 636 pounds per square inch. The writer does not believe, however, that this stress will ever occur, since the concrete will never attain the variation in temperature assumed above. In the choice of the curve of the rib, an attempt has been made to combine both beauty and maximum strength with minimum material, and it is believed that this result has been accomplished.
