1950s Architecture
The Horizon Hotel was built in 1952 as a getaway for Hollywood producer Jack Wrather
and his wife, designed by William A. Cody. The low, flat roofs and clean lines
are typical of mid-20th century buildings in Palm Springs, but this place has a
twist: There are no square corners so the rooms and structures are all slightly
diamond-shaped.
