Spanish dream castles: Defining an architectural style for Los Angeles in the Depression era.
Zaiden, Emily Natasha.

Spanish dream castles: Defining an architectural style for Los Angeles in the Depression era. - 74 p.

Professor in charge: James C. Curtis.

Thesis (M.A.)--University of Delaware (Winterthur Program), 2002.

Despite the impact of the depression, Los Angeles burgeoned over the course of the late 1920s and 1930s. Throughout this time, Los Angeles designers, builders, and residents searched for an architectural identity that would symbolically unify the community. As a response, they turned to California's pre-existing Spanish Colonial style. This thesis offers an interpretation of the way that their vision for Los Angeles' residential architecture was expressed in both the specialized and popular-interest design sources and periodicals of the era.

520 $a Despite the impact of the depression, Los Angeles burgeoned over the course of the late 1920s and 1930s. Throughout this time, Los Angeles designers, builders, and residents searched for an architectural identity that would symbolically unify the community. As a response, they turned to California's pre-existing Spanish Colonial style. This thesis offers an interpretation of the way that their vision for Los Angeles' residential architecture was expressed in both the specialized and popular-interest design sources and periodicals of the era.
520 $a Numerous scholars have examined the influence of individual architects in disseminating this style. Rather than studying the role of isolated structures, designers, and clients, this paper explores the wider manifestation of the style as it evolved in relation to the Depression-era climate. Beyond the significant racial, economic, and political implications of its appropriation, the Spanish Colonial style could straddle the past, and simultaneously move Los Angeles into the future.
