Ansgar Halbfas during mid-century architecture sights for a celebrity at Donald Wexler's steel development house in Palm Springs, USA
Ansgar Halbfas highlights and explains the architectural qualities of the 'Steel Development House Number 2' built from steel and glass using a unique synthesis of prefabrication and both off-site and on site assembly. The house is based on a steel panel system already being used for school classrooms, and adapted for the harsh desert climate. A single library of prefabricated parts could be rapidly assembled into a wide variety of customized, affordable houses to meet the needs of the nuclear family. Guiding his clients to this and similar loations is an important element of Ansgar Halbfas work when communicating the quality and architectural language applicable to his own work.
