Miles Bates “Wave” House (1955)
Architect: Walter S. White
Dates open: February 21-23, $30
The Miles Bates House — known as the Wave House for
its curving roof that mimics the San Jacinto mountains behind
it — is being opened publicly for the first time since
its remarkable restoration. It was one of more than forty
houses in and around Palm Desert designed by local-born
Walter S. White. In 2018 this home became the first Palm
Desert landmark to be listed on the National Register of
Historic Places. Purchased that spring by Stayner Architects,
a family-run
architecture and development firm based in Los Angeles,
the Wave House has been lovingly and meticulously
restored to Walter White’s original designs.
