It was commissioned by the Museum of Modern Art and was built in the garden of the Museum, as a temporary installation. Later it was purchased by the Rockefeller family, who moved it to one of their estates to serve as a guest house. The design is simple and elegant, combining natural materials with a modern handling of form and space. Within its efficient framework it achieves a variety of heights, volumes and moods. The plan includes 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and generously sized social spaces including an ideal play space for children. The plans also include the "Annex" that was built next to it a few years later, an ideal guest cottage or home office, near but not attached to the house. As a work of art these prints are worth purchasing in their own right. For those of you interested in building a historically inspired house, these plans offer an excellent starting point. The plan is ideally suited for a flat site. This house would be comfortable in a suburban or country setting. This spacious home has outside dimensions of approximately 24' x 78', not including the separate annex, which measures approximately 20'x26'.

IF YOU ARE PLANNING TO BUILD: These plans are not complete architectural drawings as might be required by your local permitting agency and do not contain all the structural, waterproofing and other details and information necessary for construction. But your local builder or architect should be able to adapt these drawings and add to them as necessary. What they do provide is accurate design information about a REAL historic house, not a pseudo-historic tract house as you will find in the house plan magazines on your supermarket shelf.
