Donald Allen Wexler (January 23, 1926 – June 26, 2015) was an influential Mid-Century modern architect whose work is predominantly in the Palm Springs, California area. He is known for having pioneered the use of steel in residential design. ==Life and career== Wexler was born in Sioux Falls, South Dakota in 1926 and raised in Minneapolis, Minnesota. He graduated from the University of Minnesota in 1950〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.moderndeserthome.com/index.php/architects/donald-wexler )〕 and worked for Richard Neutra. He moved to Palm Springs in 1952 and practiced there for almost six decades, developing an architecture that is acutely sensitive to the extremes of the desert climate. In 1962, he designed the all-steel Alexander houses, along with the structural engineer Bernard Perlin for the developers George and Robert Alexander. His houses' framing, roofs and exterior siding are typically steel, with drywall interior siding.〔 While he chose to keep his office small and limited his practice to the desert community, Wexler produced a body of work that included houses, schools, hotels, banks and the Palm Springs International Airport.
