I might be stabbing in the dark here. I’m looking for this book of modern homes that my father had when I was a kid (in the 80’s). Since it was so long ago, I don’t remember too many of the details. It was a large hard cover book, medium thickness, probably published in the 70’s. Black and white pictures. Recently I asked my parents about the book and my mother said she probably threw it away. My father couldn’t remember the name of it.

The only house that I remember for sure was the Hoffman house by Richard Meier. I think I remember seeing Case Study House 22 by Pierre Koenig in it as well – maybe other case study houses as well - not sure. Could have been some Philip Johnson in there also. They were mostly mid-century modern homes and some of the of the “contemporary” style homes of the 60’s and 70’s. There was another house I remember vaguely, somewhere in the southern US (probably California or Florida) – that was a circular or polygon-like design with a courtyard at the center.

I know it’s not very specific – but any ideas would be great. I remember liking the book as a kid – it might bring back some good memories.
