It's our annual summer roundup of Modernist masterpieces on the market, and this year in our search across the country we've found an abundance of truly remarkable homes by renowned architects, including two husband-and-wife architect teams – Joan and Ken Warriner and Hamilton and Gwenydd Beatty – as well as Richard Neutra, John Lautner, Gene Leedy, Andrew Geller, Paul Rudolph, Joseph Esherick, Tasso Katselas, and many more.
From Cape Cod to Sea Ranch, Sarasota to Waco, all of these residences have a story to tell, but with architecturally-significant home ownership comes great responsibility. The moment one of these properties hits the market, there's always a risk that it'll get stripped of original details or become a development opportunity. It takes the proper steward, someone with curiosity and passion, to preserve their narrative and architectural integrity. So let's make some homeowner matches in the name of Modernism.
