1200 Paseo El Mirador, Palm Springs

Clark House. This is the first house designed and built by the team of Clark and Frey, soon after they arrived in Palm Springs from New York. And it seems somewhat out of place, a displaced East Coast house. Still owned by the descendants of Clark, the house is in much its original condition. A small central ground floor core with a jutting cantilevered living space above a statement in steel and engineering.

3200 East Tahaquitz McCallum, Palm Springs

Palm Springs City Hall. California has a fine tradition of innovative and modern civic architecture. Palm Springs City Hall is an especially fine structure and perfectly adapted to its site and especially its climate. The barrel shaped sun screens along the front make the building cool and inviting on even the sunniest day.
