Architectural Record is the premier architectural magazine in America, with a devoted following among architects, designers, and the increasingly design-minded public. Drawing from the roster of award-winning residences featured since 1956 in Record Houses, the magazine's prestigious "best of" annual issue, this revised and expanded edition of the popular 1996 Abrams book showcases more than 75 of the most innovative and influential houses built in the last 50 years.

Designed by such luminaries as Philip Johnson, Richard Meier, Gwathmey Siegel & Associates, Frank Gehry, and this year's Pritzker Prize-winner, Thom Mayne of Morphosis, these houses have helped shape the direction of residential architecture. Texts by six noted architectural writers provide illuminating commentary on the key trends and developments of residential architecture in the last half century, and each decade is represented by a stunning portfolio of photographs, along with numerous plans and drawings. Both inspiring and informative, this book chronicles a fascinating period in modern American architecture.

Swatt Architects is an award-winning San Francisco Bay area firm known for fusing a modernist sensibility with the particular challenges of California landscapes to create unique spaces for living. The firm has been recognised internationally for creating distinctive, livable modern architecture that emphasizes the creative use of structure, elegant detailing that expresses the nature of material, and spatial continuity and transparency that expands interior space and blurs the distinction between indoors and outdoors. This new publication documents the firm's most significant residential design work and examines in detail its individual approach to house design.

The mid-twentieth century was one of the most productive and inventive periods in Wright's career, producing such masterworks as the Guggenheim Museum, Price Tower, Fallingwater, the Usonian houses, and the Loveness House, as well as a vast array of innovative furniture and object design. With a variety of shapes and forms-ranging from honeycombs to spirals-this period is an important contribution to mid-century modernism. Mentoring such talents as Richard Neutra and Rudolph Schindler among others, Wright was one of the most influential proponents of the simplicity, democratic designs, and organic forms that characterize Mid-Century Modern. With lavish, new, previously unpublished color photographs and detailed plans, Frank Lloyd Wright: Mid-Century Modern is a comprehensive examination of an underserved period in Wright's career.
