Under the Influence: Richard Meier's Douglas House and Carol A Wilson Architect's Beach Pavilion
To coincide with the publication of Ornament is Crime by our founders, Matt Gibberd and Albert Hill, we’re running a weekly feature that showcases some of the beautiful black-and-white photography from the book.
Modern houses built at different times and in different countries are pictured alongside each other, to demonstrate how the central themes of Modernism have remained remarkably consistent and still have resonance in today’s residential architecture.
In the spirit of summer, this week we’re admiring two takes on the modern beach house.
Richard Meier’s Douglas House, Harbour Springs, Michigan, USA (1973)
Carol A Wilson Architect’s Beach Pavilion, Kennebunkport, Maine, USA (2013)
