Current Era
 

19th Century

1800-1895

Known for its charming Victorian mansions and old-world style, the 19th century also gave birth to the Colonial Revival period, thanks to the 1876 Centennial Exposition, which celebrated the 100th year anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. For the first time in America’s history, it became important to document and preserve buildings of architectural interest.

Turn of the Century

1896-1918

Queen-Anne style architecture dominated during the turn of the century, but Colonial Revival homes gained real traction during this era. The early 1900s also ushered in the American Craftsman style — inspired by the Arts and Crafts movement — that became synonymous with Southern California. Craftsman homes, as epitomized by the California bungalow, utilized natural materials in contrast to the over-decorated and eclectic Victorian aesthetic.

Pre-War

1919-1940

Period Revival style homes such as Spanish, Mediterranean, Italianate, and Tudor helped define the Pre-War era. In the 1920s and 1930s, Art Deco buildings created futuristic skylines in downtown LA and on Wilshire Boulevard’s Miracle Mile. Streamline Moderne drive-ins were all the rage and Googie-themed coffee shops and gas stations were influenced by everything from jets to the Atomic Age.

Mid-Century Modern

1945-1965

The beginning of the Mid-Century Modern era popularized single story Minimal Traditional and Ranch-style homes that were ideal for young families or those returning from World War II. Modernism blossomed with creative custom builds such as Pierre Koenig’s Case Study #21 and John Lautner’s Silvertop. With an emphasis on the indoor-outdoor connection and open floor plans, Mid-Century Modern architecture boomed across the U.S.

Post-Modern

1966-1995

Characterized by compact A-Frames and Split-Level houses, the Post-Modern era coincided with the construction of new highways, dams, and lakes, which opened up the wilderness to Americans. The period’s innovative architecture included Frank Gehry’s expressive builds in Santa Monica and Venice, the use of bold color and fragmentary shapes, and experimental residences by the likes of Thom Mayne and Eric Owen Moss.

 

Current Era

1996-Present

We know selling a home can be more emotional than buying one, and we’ll leverage our experience and market know-how to ease you through the process. But first we’ll uncover your motivations for selling, establish a timeline and a marketing plan, and see how your home compares with others on the market. We have a track record of proven success, and you can rely on us to be your champion and best source for solutions.
