If you're looking to understand Palm Springs' mid-century modern roots, Twin Palms is the perfect place to begin.
Designed by architect William Krisel in 1956 and developed by George and Robert Alexander of the Alexander Construction Company between 1957 and 1958, Twin Palms is Palm Springs’ first mid-century modern tract neighborhood. While many homes have been altered over time, signature design elements such as butterfly and flat rooflines, post-and-beam construction, and expansive glass doors are still visible throughout the neighborhood.
