Home of the Week: William Krisel-designed retreat plays up its many sides
Realized as an experiment in modern living, this radical residence in Palm Springs is known as the Pod House for its five interlocking and polygon-shaped wings that form the living spaces.
Common rooms lined with walls of windows and topped by radiating beams create a light and airy ambience. A centerpiece fireplace enclosed in copper and stone runs from floor to ceiling to divide the living and dining rooms.
