Be the first to see the final residence designed by famed architect Donald Wexler from 6-9 p.m. on Feb. 13 at the Palm Springs Modern Committee’s gala benefit, the coolest party of the year!

This premiere event marks the official opening of the house that Don perfected before he left us last year. Join us in paying tribute to Palm Springs’ beloved ‘Man of Steel” by celebrating his final masterpiece — a striking, streamlined steel and glass home that was completed just weeks ago.

A simple post and beam structure in the lineage of Don’s original steel homes built 55 years ago and constructed with today’s sustainable technology, this extraordinary home is certain to take a place among Palm Springs’ trove of architectural treasures.

For more information on the home, read Palm Springs Life’s feature story here: A Last Test of Steel.

Enjoy poolside cocktails and passed hors d’oeuvres, while losing yourself in the music of DJ to the starts, James Gonzales. Suggested dress: Wex-Appeal, Metallic.
