Wallace Neff
Concrete dome homes were developed in the 1930s by Wallace Neff, a leading southern Californian architect. For more information, look for the new book No Nails, No Lumber by Jeffrey Head. It provides a thorough documentation of Neff’s career in the design and construction of airform buildings in the U.S. and throughout the world.

The dome gets a home! Doug’s beautiful cabana found a permanent home when it was donated to Demuth Community Center in Palm Springs. Special thanks to Dan Hildebrand/Hildebrand Construction (Hildebrandinc.com) for his enormous contribution to Palm Springs Modernism Week.
