John Volk was one of the “big five” architects of Palm Beach. It was here, during his sixty years of practice, that he was commissioned to design over 2,000 projects, among them the Royal Poinciana Plaza as well as additions and renovations to the Everglades Club. This book is about the Volks, and the part they played in conjuring the spell with which Palm Beach continues to enchant.

Palm Beach, among other things, is its architecture. Red tile roofs and cast stone columns hint of the Mediterranean. Evidence of inspirations from Spain and Morocco abound. After the economic collapse of 1929, the classical architectural orders began to appear on columns and porticos. The Bermuda style and Modernism made an appearance later. Yet there is no one style exclusively associated Volk; here he perfected many styles and his architectural legacy can be found on almost every street.

While this book honors John Volk’s architecture and his enormous impact, it also celebrates Jane Volk’s contribution to Palm Beach and her devotion to protecting the town and its historic character.

Nice but better on tall men
We ordered this for a show. Our actor is 5’9” and the sleeves and legs are too long as well as the body of the tunic.I believe we ordered a medium. The waist fit and we could not go any smaller. In another review I have an actor who is 6’5” and very thin in the same size and it fits him well.

Cute Comfy Cultured 💕
Color: Burgundy With Gold, Size: Small, Color: Burgundy With Gold, Size: Small
I ordered all my boys the men's sizes because I needed the burgundy gold tones to match my dress. All their outfits were longer then need but was expected because they're not men! My 8yr old wore men's small, my 10yr old wore men's medium, 13yr old wore men's large and our taller 12yr old wore XL. They color was deep, the gold is a print not embroidery but they all were handsome and comfortable 💕
