Forgotten Modernism - A Study In Mid-Century Architecture
San Francisco architect-turned-artist Michael Murphy is one of my favorites and is fast becoming one of the Bay Area’s Mid-Century Modern treasures. Best known for his widely acclaimed Forgotten Modernism series, Murphy’s work celebrates Mid-Century and contemporary architecture; but also goes beyond and interprets some of San Francisco’s traditional architectural gems with a modernistic point of view.
Always stylized, Murphy’s artwork includes San Francisco neighborhoods…                                                                                               Â

                                                                   …and Eichlers, including Eichler Summit at 999 Green Street in San Francisco.Â
                             Â

Some of the City’s traditional architecture is also given a nod and a modernistic twist.

The Forgotten Modernism series has recently expanded to include Los Angeles and Palm Springs.                                                                                          Â
