Reviews for Friedman House

"""...perhaps West Coast Modern should more accurately be known as ""West Coast Organic."" This term certainly captures the essence of the Shumiatcher and Friedman houses, and the others covered by this fascinating series of little architecture books."" --Martin Segger, The Ormsby Review"
