"The purpose of this volume is threefold: to call attention to a movement which we believe to be of deep significance both to architecture and to life; to show it in its international perspective but with reference to America's contribution; and to make some of its potentialities known to home builders as well as to architects. Modern residentail architecture has been treated as organic planning integrated with suitable design. This collection is essentially American, not merely because limited to houses built in this country, but because virtually every house presented shows some degree of American originality." - quote from Preface.
