Description

The modern home A retrospective of the Case Study Houses program The Case Study Houses

program (1945 1966) was an exceptional, innovative event in the history of American architecture

and remains to this day unique. The program, which concentrated on the Los Angeles area and

oversaw the design of 36 prototype homes, sought to make available plans for modern residences

that could be easily and cheaply constructed during the postwar building boom. The program s

chief motivating force was Arts & Architecture editor John Entenza, a champion of modernism who

had all the right connections to attract some of architecture s greatest talents, such as Richard

Neutra, Charles and Ray Eames, and Eero Saarinen. Highly experimental, the program generated

houses that were designed to redefine the modern home, and had a pronounced influence on

architecture American and international both during the program s existence and even to this day.

TASCHEN brings you a retrospective of the entire program with comprehensive documentation,

brilliant photographs from the period and, for the houses still in existence, contemporary photos,

as well as extensive floor plans and sketches.About the series: Bibliotheca Universalis Compact

cultural companions celebrating the eclectic TASCHEN universe at an unbeatable, democratic

price!Since we started our work as cultural archaeologists in 1980, the name TASCHEN has

become synonymous with accessible, open-minded publishing. Bibliotheca Universalis brings

together nearly 100 of our all-time favorite titles in a neat new format so you can curate your own

affordable library of art, anthropology, and aphrodisia.Bookworm s delight never bore, always

excite!Text in English, French, and German"
