Integratron

2477 Belfield Boulevard, Landers, CA 92285 – This link opens in a new browser tab

The desert has offered visionary architects shelter and inspiration. Since the 1920s, some of the world’s most visionary architects emigrated to the desert to put the idea of an architecture that grows organically from its environment into action — you can take a self- or pro-guided tour of the desert modern homes and buildings designed by the likes of Richard Neutra, Albert Frey, John Lautner, William F. Cody and Donald Wexler. The Integratron is truly one of the weirdest and best things not only in the low desert but in the world. You can set your mind spinning with a 60-minute sound bath in an all-wood, acoustically-perfect dome built by Nikola Tesla-disciple George Van Tassel — the currents harness electromagnetic oscillations to rejuvenate cells, enhance well-being and increase the peace.
