His images of \u003cb\u003emidcentury Southern Californian architecture \u003c\/b\u003ecaptured not only the distinctive structural, functional, and design elements of a building but also the context of its surroundings and inhabitants in a \u003cb\u003eholistic, evocative sense of lifestyle. \u003c\/b\u003eOver time, Shulman's talents would take him around the world, steadily crafting \u003cb\u003eone of the most compelling chronologies of modern architecture\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Offering an immense cultural cache for an even lower price, this fresh edition of TASCHEN's Modernism Rediscovered features \u003cb\u003eover 400 architectural treasures\u003c\/b\u003e from the Shulman archives.
