A monograph on Robert Ernest, a forgotten figure in American mid-century modern architecture, who, before passing at the tragically early age of 28, designed three built works that, in ways both direct and indirect, influenced the development of architecture in Florida for the following three generations.

Everyone has a story … Setting off from leafy Dulwich, Paul discovers the electrifying music of the late 60s, legendary gigs, light-shows and student rebellion. Artist and architect heroes inspire precarious travels to North Africa and Iran in a search for the sustainability and longevity of indigenous cultures. Back in London, he finds work for Grosvenor and Cadogan Estates whilst simultaneously being commissioned by the rock ‘n roll world. Radical recording studios to meet the changing technology of music production lead to stage sets and musicians houses: Ringo Starr, Roxy Music and Duran Duran all enjoying Paul’s ability to inject individuality into their homes.

Lavishly illustrated, this monograph features 27 select homes designed and built by Polhemus Savery DaSilva, reflecting the joy of living by the New England Coast.
