Prior to graduating from USC’s School of Architecture, in 1934, Raphael Soriano internshed in Richard Neutra’s office. Relying heavily on steel construction materials, Soriano grew to be widely recognized for Case Study House 1950 for Arts & Architecture magazine as well as a home for photographer Julius Shulman. None of his work in San Diego was built.
