He practiced and lived in the desert city from 1939 until his death in 1998, and many of his iconic buildings are preserved there today, including Raymond Loewy House, Palm Springs City Hall, Palm Springs Aerial Tramway Valley Gas Station and Frey House II.<\/p>\n<p>The addition of the Aluminaire House is a major boon for the design-minded vacation destination. Mark Davis, treasurer of Modernism Week and committee member of the nonprofit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.aluminairehousefoundation.org\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Aluminaire House Foundation<\/a>, said the entire city \u2014 from the mayor to the Modern Art Museum \u2014 is in full support of the decision to house Aluminaire to round out their Frey collection. \u201cWe\u2019ve been talking about getting the house here for the last three Modernism Weeks,\u201d Davis said. \u201cIt was almost a unanimous vote. From the very start, the revolutionary design caught people\u2019s attention, just as it did in the 1930s when it came out looking like something from outer space.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Built in 1931, the small-scale structure came to life under the vision of a young Frey \u2014 just trained by Le Corbusier in Paris \u2014 and A. Lawrence Kocher, then managing editor of <i>Architectural Record<\/i>. The project was commissioned as part of a buildings products display at the <a href=\"http:\/\/archleague.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Architectural League of New York<\/a> exhibition, put on in conjunction with Allied Arts and Industries. The pair proposed a model dwelling made of standard, \u201coff the shelf\u201d materials \u2014 accessible, cheap and a prototype for 21st-century housing.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\n\t<img class=\"lazy\"\n\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/themes\/architizer\/assets\/images\/blank.png\"\n\t\tdata-src=\"https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1486677467953AluminareHouse-632a4b991.jpeg?fit=max&#038;w=1680&#038;q=60&#038;auto=format&#038;auto=compress&#038;cs=strip\"\n\t\t\t\t\tdata-srcset=\"https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1486677467953AluminareHouse-632a4b991.jpeg?fit=max&amp;w=1680&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 1680w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1486677467953AluminareHouse-632a4b991.jpeg?fit=max&amp;w=1080&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 1080w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1486677467953AluminareHouse-632a4b991.jpeg?fit=max&amp;w=760&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 760w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1486677467953AluminareHouse-632a4b991.jpeg?fit=max&amp;w=625&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 625w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1486677467953AluminareHouse-632a4b991.jpeg?fit=max&amp;w=368&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 368w\"\n\t\t\tsizes=\"(min-width: 1680px) 1680px,(min-width: 1080px) 1080px,(min-width: 760px) 760px,(min-width: 625px) 625px,368px\"\n\t\t\t\talt=\"\"\n\t\titemprop=\"contentUrl\"\n\t>\n<\/div>\n\n<p><i>Image via <a href=\"http:\/\/www.aluminaire.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" helvetica=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Aluminaire.org<\/a><\/i><\/p>\n<p>To complement Aluminaire\u2019s world debut, Kocher and Frey published an article in <i>Record<\/i> about their study to design for small lots in New York City subdivisions. Arguing specifically that current construction in Queens was flimsy, monotonous and contributed nothing to community life, their solution was a plan with the flexibility and appeal of the Aluminaire House.<\/p>\n<p>At 1,200 square feet, the steel and aluminum, three-story structure stands partially on top of six columns. The exterior walls are covered in narrow-ribbed aluminum panels, and large glass windows bring light into the house. A third-floor covered terrace connects visitors with the outdoors. Kocher and Frey designed the house and its components to be quickly assembled as a whole. The project was put together in just 10 days at the Grand Central Palace next to Grand Central Station and opened for one week, during which over 100,000 people toured modern living space.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\n\t<img class=\"lazy\"\n\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/themes\/architizer\/assets\/images\/blank.png\"\n\t\tdata-src=\"https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1486677003499alumDrawing.jpg?fit=max&#038;w=1680&#038;q=60&#038;auto=format&#038;auto=compress&#038;cs=strip\"\n\t\t\t\t\tdata-srcset=\"https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1486677003499alumDrawing.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=1680&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 1680w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1486677003499alumDrawing.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=1080&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 1080w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1486677003499alumDrawing.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=760&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 760w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1486677003499alumDrawing.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=625&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 625w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1486677003499alumDrawing.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=368&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 368w\"\n\t\t\tsizes=\"(min-width: 1680px) 1680px,(min-width: 1080px) 1080px,(min-width: 760px) 760px,(min-width: 625px) 625px,368px\"\n\t\t\t\talt=\"\"\n\t\titemprop=\"contentUrl\"\n\t>\n<\/div>\n\n<p><i>Image via the <a href=\"http:\/\/nyit.edu\/magazine\/modern_artifact\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">New York Institute of Technology<\/a><\/i><\/p>\n<p>Wildly popular, Aluminaire House was covered extensively in the press and also sparked conversation on its role in the going debates surrounding affordable housing in the United States. In 1932, the Museum of Modern Art featured the house in its first-ever architectural showcase, \u201cModern Architecture: An International Exhibition,\u201d organized by Henry Russell Hitchcock and Philip Johnson.<\/p>\n<p>Following the exhibition, architect Wallace K. Harrison bought the house and moved it to his property on Huntington, Long Island. When his estate was sold and the owner decided to demolish the building, a group of architects and preservationists banded together to save the long-neglected house. Among the group were New York Institute of Technology professors Frances Campani and Michael Schwarting. Placed under their care with a grant from the New York State Department of Parks Recreation and Historic Preservation, Aluminaire House became the focal point of a structures course at the Central Islip campus of the NYIT. Students learned to repair, dismantle and assemble the house while documenting every detail.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\n\t<img class=\"lazy\"\n\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/themes\/architizer\/assets\/images\/blank.png\"\n\t\tdata-src=\"https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1486677467946AluminaireHouse_Reconstructing.jpg?fit=max&#038;w=1680&#038;q=60&#038;auto=format&#038;auto=compress&#038;cs=strip\"\n\t\t\t\t\tdata-srcset=\"https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1486677467946AluminaireHouse_Reconstructing.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=1680&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 1680w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1486677467946AluminaireHouse_Reconstructing.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=1080&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 1080w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1486677467946AluminaireHouse_Reconstructing.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=760&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 760w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1486677467946AluminaireHouse_Reconstructing.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=625&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 625w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1486677467946AluminaireHouse_Reconstructing.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=368&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 368w\"\n\t\t\tsizes=\"(min-width: 1680px) 1680px,(min-width: 1080px) 1080px,(min-width: 760px) 760px,(min-width: 625px) 625px,368px\"\n\t\t\t\talt=\"\"\n\t\titemprop=\"contentUrl\"\n\t>\n<\/div>\n\n<p><i>Image via the <a href=\"http:\/\/nyit.edu\/magazine\/modern_artifact\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">New York Institute of Technology<\/a><\/i><\/p>\n<p>\u201cAluminaire House was revolutionary in its ability to be taken down so easily with screwdrivers,\u201d said Schwarting. \u201cWe\u2019d take apart the house in a few days, make drawings of each layer of material and how it was arranged and located in the building.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When the campus closed in 2012, the Aluminaire House Foundation was formed to preserve the house.
