5.0 out of 5 stars Stunning survey of a unique design initiative!
Many architects are familiar with the “case study” homes that were designed after WW2 through the mid-sixties, but few lay persons are acquainted with this exceptional program to foster a more forward leaning approach to contemporary design. Beautiful homes!
5.0 out of 5 stars Hermoso libro
Hermoso libro no decepciona si eres amante de la arquitectura este libro no puede faltar en tu librería, es visualmente hermoso.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great addition to our bookshelf!
Great little coffee table book or bookshelf feature to have in our mid century modern home! Fun to flip through and read! Good balance of text and pictures!
4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting content
They have some cool photos and interesting little architectural drawings- the book itself is super slim tho, I got it as a present so I was hoping for more of a substantial coffee table book vibe
5.0 out of 5 stars Great book about MCM houses!

I am a big fan of Pierre Koenig's style and his ability to create a beautiful design. I was interested in learning more about the case study program, and this book seemed like a bargain. It has sketches and drawings about each of the case study homes, even the ones that were never built. Also makes a nice coffee table book. I will be buying more of the Taschen books on architecture, art and design.
5.0 out of 5 stars Succinct, simple, and so easy to access, digest, and feel
The other Case Study book is multilingual, with a difficult physical format, and roughly the same amount of photos as this one. This book in itself encapsulates the Case Study feel much more than that one - succinct, clear, as the title of the review says...
5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect present
