The Stahl House by Pierre Koenig: A Timeless 1959 Hollywood Hills Icon That Tops My List
If you're a mid-century enthusiast, you've probably heard of the Stahl House—and for good reason. Every year, my team and I prioritize attending Palm Springs Modernism Week in February and take the opportunity to venture into the Hollywood Hills and revisit the homes that continue to inspire us throughout the year. Some, like the Stahl House, we’ve visited four or five times, and yet, each visit feels as fresh and exciting as the first.
The Kaufmann House: A Highlight of Modernism Week in Palm Springs
As someone passionate about Mid-Century Modern design, the Kaufmann House in Palm Springs has always been a major source of inspiration. Designed in 1946 by Richard Neutra for Edgar J. Kaufmann Sr., it’s a perfect example of how architecture can blend seamlessly with its surroundings. The clean lines, expansive glass walls, and carefully chosen materials create a natural connection between indoor and outdoor spaces—elements I always look for when helping clients find their ideal home. The Kaufmann House is a true testament to the enduring appeal of Mid-Century design, and its influence continues to shape the way we think about modern living today.

Why I Love Living in Boise as a Native and Mid-Century Enthusiast
Growing up in Boise, I’ve always appreciated the unique balance this city offers.

As someone who has spent my entire life here, I’ve seen Boise grow and change, but what hasn’t changed is the strong sense of community and connection to the outdoors that makes this place special.
