The official biography of a midcentury modern architectural gem and the family that made it their home. The Stahl House--envisioned by owners Buck and Carlotta Stahl and designed by architect Pierre Koenig--has been an icon of midcentury modern architecture since its construction in the 1960s. The glass and iron structure perched in the Hollywood Hills broke architectural rules and conventions, blurred the boundaries between indoors and outdoors, and has come to embody the idealism of a generation. The groundbreaking yet modest two-bedroom, 2,300-square-foot house with glass walls that disappear into a 270-degree panorama of Los Angeles has appeared in countless high-end ad campaigns, in film, and on television, cementing its lasting prominence in contemporary culture. Bringing together extensive research and interviews, never-before-seen sketches, blueprints, and plans, as well as photos from the Stahl family´s personal collection, The Stahl House: Case Study House #22 provides the ultimate insider´s view into a pioneering feat of architecture. Discover the Stahl House in a new light with this compelling book that Vanity Fair calls "a love song to a global icon."
