      Das „Case-Study-House-Projekt“ (1945-66) war ein außergewöhnliches, innovatives und bis zum heutigen Tag einzigartiges Ereignis in der Geschichte der amerikanischen Architektur. Es konzentrierte sich auf die Gegend um Los Angeles und sah die Gestaltung von 36 Prototypen vor, die im Bau-Boom der Nachkriegsjahre die einfache, günstige Konstruktion von modernen Wohnhäusern ermöglichen sollten. Die treibende Kraft hinter diesem Projekt war John Entenza , der Herausgeber von Arts & Architecture und ein Verfechter des Modernismus, der mit seinen einschlägigen Verbindungen Talente wie Richard Neutra , Charles und Ray Eames und Eero Saarinen verpflichten konnte. Das äußerst experimentelle Projekt brachte Häuser hervor, durch die modernes Wohnen neu definiert werden sollte, hatte somit einen bedeutenden Einfluss auf die amerikanische wie auch die internationale Architektur, zu seiner Zeit und sogar heute noch. Dieses Buch ist eine monumentale Retrospektive des gesamten Projekts, mit umfassender Dokumentation, ausgezeichneten Fotografien aus der Entstehungszeit und aktuellen Aufnahmen von den noch existierenden Häusern, sowie mit detaillierten Grundrissen und Skizzen.

      Case study houses
    • Status symbols that define the spirit of the age Designers of genius. Henry van de Velde, Charles Rennie Mackintosh and Josef Hoffmann. Le Corbusier and Emile Jacques Ruhlmann. Charles Eames, Ettore Sottsas and Philippe Starck. At their hands furniture came into its own. The twentieth century transformed interiors into sets - and on those sets the creations of these designers played the star parts. This is a book about status symbols that express the character of their owners but, more than that, define the spirit of the age.
