Photos of Raymond Loewy's House in Palm Springs by Rain Noe

A favorite pastime is raiding Google's archive of previously-unseen Life Magazine photos. There's three pages of film on Raymond Loewy, who was apparently quite the partier (check out his crib, above and below).

The Loewy Crib in Palm Springs featured an indoor/outdoor pool studded with natural rock formations.
