Preservation of Style is a photographic wander through some of Los Angeles' famous apartments of the 1920's and 30's.
The book showcases the architecture, history, and style of three noteworthy neighborhoods. Preservation of Style reinforces the mood of early LA through the details of its historical buildings and apartments.
The visuals spotlight the features and contrasting looks of European Revival and Art Deco apartment houses. During the LA housing boom in the 1920's, there was a consistent effort to build apartments in the revival style and give them European names to make the new city feel old.
