Trousdale Estates - Mid-Century to Modern in Beverly Hills
Author(s): Steven M. Price
Trousdale Estates is an enclave of luxurious homes in Beverly Hills. Primarily developed in the '50s and '60s, it became famous for its celebrity residents and the extravagance of Mid-Century Modern architecture. Often working with unlimited budgets, designers created sprawling backdrops for the ultimate expression of the American Dream. In Trousdale Estates, Price explores architectural backgrounds and floor plans of the homes, giving an inside view of Beverly Hills style. Lavish new photography is interspersed with archival images, illustrating the beauty of Trousdale then and now.
