In Andalusia, Spain, the weather can get really hot and you rarely see AC in houses (it's still common in buildings such as malls and hospitals, for example). I am sure there are many features of Andalusian architecture that would be applicable in LA and other places in the US.

You are right, and it is ironic that the historic building style in those regions probably was in the Spanish tradition of the early settlers.
