Rodney Walker (1910-1986)
Rodney A. Walker is best known as a modern architect for Arts + Architecture magazine's Case Study House program. A student of engineering, Walker worked in the office of Rudolph Schindler in 1938 and emulated the master as engineer, designer and builder. Walker's design philosophy included economy and efficiency without aesthetic compromise. Walker designed and built hundreds of homes in Southern California - often building two at a time for maximum efficiency. Throughout his work, Walker emphasized the three-foot building module and experimented extensively with dynamic roof planes. In 1956, Walker moved to Ojai where he continued his design practice until retirement in 1971. Click on images to enlarge Selected Works:
