The houses that defined modern living. Case Study Houses is the essential introduction to one of the most influential architectural programs of the twentieth century — 36 prototype designs that created paradigms for modern residential life far beyond their Los Angeles heartland. The book gathers 150 photographs and plans exploring each model residence and the visionary architects behind it, including Richard Neutra, Charles and Ray Eames, and Eero Saarinen. The program's experiments in glass, steel, and indoor-outdoor living quietly reshaped American architecture — and continue to define what modernism looks like today. The blueprint for modern home.
