As the basic building block of the human environment, the house has served as an inexhaustible playground where architects experiment with theories, styles, forms, and materials. Arguably, the best and most innovative residential architecture has been conceived and realised over the past 100 years — from the cantileveral serenity of Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater to the spectacular Chemosphere, which resembles a UFO that has planted its landing gear in the Hollywood Hills. This book, the first to chronicle the development of the modern house, examines major shifts in international domestic design over the past century as it highlights a superb selection of extraordinary homes.Author Richard Weston engagingly tells the story of the twentieth-century house through eight semi-chronological design themes. From the Arts and Crafts period to the present, he covers a wide range of homes exemplifying each period and presents more than 100 benchmark dwellings with detailed architectural drawings. Weston also addresses the fascinating ways in which domestic design has both reflected and influenced the changing social climates and lifestyles of the past century, making this a book that will appeal to anthropologists, as well as architects, designers, and homeowners.

The design and organization of the house have been sources of endless experimentation and innovation for modern architects, a means to try out new theories, styles, forms and materials. Twentieth Century Residential Architecture gives a detailed, comprehensive treatment of the history of the modern house, covering all the key examples together with many others that are less well-known but equally important. The book is organized semi-chronologically around major themes: the house as a work of art; the modern house; machines for living in; place, climate and culture; the American dream; Scandinavian modernism; the post-modern dwelling and the continuity and transformation of contemporary house architecture. Through these themes the author tells the story of innovative domestic architecture from the Arts and Crafts period in the late nineteenth century up to the present. Each chapter covers a wide range of houses, while key examples are examined in greater depth. Seminal buildings are illustrated with detailed architectural drawings and full-color illustrations. In addition to providing a formal analysis of these important buildings, the author considers ways in which the designs of houses both reflect and influence changing lifestyles.
