Philips Johnsons Glass House or Johnson house, New Canaan - Priyanka Mathur - 08-22-2014

Glass House or Johnson house, in New Canaan, Connecticut, built in 1949

Derived from Mies van der Rohe‘s Farnsworth House (1946–51) at Plano, IL, but more classical in plan, the Glass House attests to Johnson‘s naturally critical turn of mind and his preoccupation with history.
