I have been doing some research on modernist Architecture for an upcoming project and was looking at Neutra, when i came across this. Architecture of this era does get pigeonholed somewhat because of it's difficulty to fully understand, (much in the same way someone who does not know or like classical music might think it all sounds all the same.) Neutra is famous for his more unforgiving, formal work, but this house has a lightness of touch, emotional understanding with its surroundings, and knowledge of the vernacular which display a very free, natural approach from the designer.
