History of Architecture and Design - Season 1 Episode 6 R. M. Schindler : The Lovell Beach House
In television broadcast 6, Sandra Millikin discusses the highly original contribution of Rudolf Schindler to the modern movement, which is frequently attributed to his Beach House for Dr. Phillip Lovell at Newport Beach, California. This masterpiece was built during 1925-26 and its design clarity and sophistication elevate Schindler’s work to a level directly comparable with that of Le Corbusier at this time.
