    Worth a visit as much for the history as the architecture. Follow it up with a visit to the Gropius House in Lincoln, MA to see a livable, family home that still meets rigorous modernist standards!

    Ridiculously cool architecture, landscape and history. But nothing really prepares you for the underground art vaults. So awesome.

    Reserve your tickets in advance! There's a limited capacity tour and they're usually sold out.

    The house itself was pretty disappointing (when compared to Mies' Barcelona Pavilion). However, the grounds and underground art gallery were impressive

    ガラスの家:フィリップ・ジョンソン(1949)。建築家ジョンソンの自邸。ガラスと鉄でできた無装飾の建物は、モダニズム建築の象徴的存在になった。室内の家具はミース・ファン・デル・ローエによる。彼はこの家に住み続け、98年の生涯をここで閉じた。
