Art, design, architecture, construction, products. Sunday, September 23, 2007. The party/exhibit last night was incredible.the studio had such a good vibe.I can't remember when there was a more perfect evening. Paul's artwork jumped off the walls in it's vibrancy and execution.from the muted colorations to the bold splashes of brighter hues the abstract images were simply amazing in my book.a couple of patrons thought so as well.cha chinge!

Orange County Googie Archive: November 2006
http://googier.blogspot.com/2006_11_01_archive.html
Orange County Googie Archive. Friday, November 24, 2006. Coco's, Garden Grove, CA. Friday, November 17, 2006. Huff's Coffee Shop, Long Beach, CA. The sign doesn't turn anymore, half of the neon is burnt out, there's rust and dirt and grime. Yet, it's another Googie coffee shop sign. The side of the building was built up with volcano rock, which was amazing, but my camera's battery died and I didn't get a chance to snap it. 8105 E. Wardlow Rd. Long Beach, CA 90808.

Orange County Googie Archive: The Islander Apartments
http://googier.blogspot.com/2007/05/islander-apartments.html
Orange County Googie Archive. Tuesday, May 22, 2007. The Islander Apartments, Santa Ana, CA. Two giant A-frames- one over the entrance to the complex (with two Tiki poles on the front and back to support the middle of the frame), and one near the pool (with another Tiki pole supporting the middle of the frame). Click on the images to see them larger and close-up! I've tried to get into the manager's office to talk about renting one of these apartments several times, but no one ever answers! Santa Ana, CA.

Orange County Googie Archive. Thursday, March 01, 2007. Whittier Area Commerce Building. Whittier Area Commerce Building, Whittier, CA. Whittier Area Commerce Building. Whittier, CA 90605. What a great find! I also adore this. A "commerce" building- gotta love that. the typography is divine. thx for the photo. I love this stuff! Thank you so much for posting. It's so hard to find what's left of googie architecture. This building is more mid-century modern rather than googie, but it still cool.

Orange County Googie Archive: Bailey's
http://googier.blogspot.com/2007/03/baileys.html
Orange County Googie Archive. Saturday, March 17, 2007. Bailey's Drive-In Liquor, Whittier, CA. Ok, it's been open since 1922, so it's not quite Googie, but I still get a kick out of the architecture, the shapes, the signage, and the fonts enough to post it here. It's a Googie precursor, a predecessor if you will. And don't worry, you purists, I'll be coming home to Orange County soon (as in once I find time to do some more hunting! Until then, enjoy Bailey's. Whittier, CA 90601. Hrundi V. Bakshi.

Orange County Googie Archive. Wednesday, January 31, 2007. Twin Palms Village, Whittier, CA. A great old set of signs (yes, there are TWO! Along Whittier Blvd. A lot of great shapes, and it still lights up at night! Whittier, CA. 90605. Great signs. I love the palm trees and the reverse look. Anything and everything should be done to preserve America's mid-century architecture. The popularity of artist's like SHAG, the desirability of homes designed by Eichler, the resurgence in interest in George Ne...
