Modern Views
One hundred architects, artists and designers contributed their work to ModernViews (Assouline, 2010), all of it inspired by two iconic modernist buildings: the Farnsworth House in Plano, Illinois and Philip Johnson’s Glass House in New Canaan. Inside you’ll also find a forward by New Yorker architectural critic Paul Goldberger, and historic photographs taken during the construction of the celebrated properties. Best of all, proceeds from the sale of the book will go to the preservation and restoration of both homes.
Available at philipjohnsonglasshouse.org and the Philip Johnson Glass House Gift Shop, 199 Elm Street, New Canaan, (203) 594-9884.
