Description

The Case Study Houses: A Collection of 36 Modern Homes This comprehensive guide features all 36 model homes from the influential Case Study House program (1945-1966), showcasing over 150 photos and plans. The program, sponsored by Arts & Architecture magazine, aimed to provide affordable modern homes that could be easily replicated. The Los Angeles area was the focus of this innovative initiative, which included notable architects such as Richard Neutra, Raphael Soriano, and Eero Saarinen. Their designs were guided by a set of criteria that emphasized the use of war-born techniques and materials to express modern life. This compact guide includes all Case Study Houses, along with a map showing locations of all sites, including those that no longer exist.
