Beyond the Canyon: Inside Epic California Homes

For more than twenty years, globally traveling, British-born and Los Angeles-based photographer Roger Davies has photographed stunning, luxurious and unique homes by the world's most acclaimed designers and architects for the most prestigious magazines.

In the coffee-table book "Beyond the Canyon," he focuses his camera on homes in the Golden State, his adopted home. He drives along the coast to photograph interiors from Malibu to Marin County, from Laurel Canyon to Rancho Mirage. Davies takes readers into the often glamorous, always compelling homes of artists, film directors, actors, interior designers, art collectors and others who give the West Coast its cachet.

Through the variety of spaces represented - including old works by midcentury masters John Lautner, A. Quincy Jones, and Craig Ellwood, and contemporary designs by Tadao Ando and Frank Gehry - he captures the essence of California life in his portraits of spectacular spaces and breathtaking views, all bathed in a warm glow.

Davies is one of the world's best interior photographers, and his work has appeared in many monographs on interior design and architecture. In Beyond the Canyon, his first book of his own, he provides, in his own words, a rare behind-the-scenes experience as an industry insider photographing stunning homes.
