As reported in the Architect's Newspaper, Simon Ungers, 48, died in Germany. He is perhaps best known for the design of elegant austere homes including the Knee Residence in Caldwell, New Jersey (with UKZ Design), the "T-House" in upstate New York with Thomas Kinslow, and his more recent Cube house in Ithaca. He is survived by his wife, Janet O'Hair, a playwright based in New York and Berkeley, California, as well as both his parents (son to OM Ungers), who live in Cologne.

I interviewed him once. He impressed me as sensitive and intense. I have the book about the T House he gave me. The Knee House was inspirational. I remember it before it was painted.
