friday

julius shulman, 1911 – 2009 . as a child in upstate new york, my favorite playdate was with a girl down the street who had her mother’s barbie dream house from the 1950s.  the house was simple– made of cardboard, it was one level with a few partitions. and the walls were stylized.  the spaces and style were all new to me living in our contemporary 1970s home.   julius schulmans photography captured the postwar california lifestyle and the architect’s vision– his work is part of the essence of what made me want to study design.
