Get Detailed with Stunning Palm Springs Architecture
Home to the largest collection of Mid-century modern spaces, Palm Springs has created its own design aesthetic over the years, and one that people flock to experience. To understand what that style is, you’ll want to know a bit about architecture, and we’re here to help you break that down. When describing mid-20th-century developments most give the nod to the exterior, interior, and design coupled with more organic forms like large glass and clean lines, which bring to life what you’ll see when stepping outside in Palm Springs. Design aspects include all sorts of buildings, shopping centers, and plenty of luxury villas Palm Springs has seen since this style has erupted. We’re sure there is no shortage of modern-style homes, especially when it comes to McLean Company’s perfectly curated vacation rentals which showcase this modern desert style of Palm Springs.
