About This Item
Pomona: California State Polytechnic Institute, 1985. First Edition. Softcover. Near fine. 8.5 x 8.5 inches, 32 pp, in original stapled wrappers. Corners lightly bumped, minor shelfwear. Inscribed on the title page "To Sonya in appreciation, Cordially, Dione Neutra, X-mas 1985." Richard Neutra (1892-1970) was one of the most influential architects of the twentieth century. He and his wife, Dione, lived in the first home he designed for them until 1963, when it was destroyed by fire. It was reconstructed with the aid of their son Dion, also an architect, and both father and son had offices there. In 1980 the family gave the home to Cal Poly Pomona.
