Philip Johnson's Glass House in New Canaan, Connecticut, is one of the great works of architecture in America. Ironically, the fame of the Glass House has obscured Johnson's many other notable residential projects, which are surveyed in this volume. The book is organized around a dozen or so key houses, with special attention paid to the Glass House and to its impact on other residential designs, by Johnson and others. David Mohney covers the full range of Johnson's domestic architecture, with emphasis on his exploration of several recurring elements, including the inventive use of courtyards, the distinctions between private and public space, and the close attention he has always paid to how his buildings are sited within the landscape. In addition to analyzing these key works, the author has also discovered a number of little-known but fascinating Johnson house designs, many of which were either never built or altered so much over the years that they can be understood only through drawings and plans presented here. The text is accompanied by photographs by Steven Brooke, which capture how Johnson used light, space and landscape.
