The Koerner House is a historic building located in Palm Springs, California. The house was designed in 1955 for the Vancouver-based couple of Leon Koerner and Thea Koerner.
The house is a fine example of the residences that master architect E. Stewart Williams designed between 1947 and the end of the 1960s.[2] The single-story structure features a shed roof, deep overhangs, and large glass surface areas with sliding glass doors that facilitate its indoor-outdoor flow. He also integrated natural wood that was utilized for its post-and-beam construction, board-and-batten cladding, interior cabinets, closets and built-in furniture. The landscaping was designed by Eckbo, Royston and Williams. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2016.[1]
