      This book looks at how four architects--Stanley Saitowitz, Jim Jennings, Philip Banta, and Mark Horton--have worked to produce innovative, unashamedly modern single-family houses appropriate to life in California at the end of the 20th century, after the devastating fire of October 1991 razed one of the most desirable residential locations on the American West Coast.
