The distribution of the Schindler’s manifesto remains uncertain. This was an obligatory step in the life of a young European avant-gardist, and it probably passed from hand to hand. The interest paid to this text today is retrospective. It is an opportunity to go back over the training and early working life of an important architect who is still little-known. What conception of architecture did the young Schindler stand up for in this his first text? Would the beginning of his career follow this doctrinal commitment? How did such Viennese convictions travel to the USA?

The distinction between indoors and outdoors wil disappear', wrote Rudolph Schindler in 1926: 'Our house will lose its front-and-back door aspect. It will cease being a group of dens, some large ones for social effect, and a few smaller ones in which to herd the family.' Formed in Vienna in the school of Otto Wagner and Adolf Loos, Schindler went to America in 1914, and worked for Frank Lloyd Wright before settling in Hollywood in 1922. There, over the next thirty years- which included a period of partnership with Richard Neutra- he developed a personal style that responded to the hot California climate and the cool California mood. His own house in Hollywood and the Lovell House at Newport Beach, both of the 1920s, have a breath-taking sureness of touch in their interlocking shapes. This book is the first full-scale study of an architect whose buildings, with the rise of the 'New Brutalism' and Pop Art, are coming to be recognized as stimulating alternatives to the International Style.
