things i'm loving: Eichler homes


Joseph Eichler was a home developer in California between 1949 and 1974. While not an architect himself, the homes he built in the mid-century modern style are known as the Eichler Homes. He built approximately 11,000 homes, all but 3 are in California. The other 3 are in New York. His style has become synonymous with the mid-century modern movement in the United States.

  1. Awesome, they kind of remind me of the Frank Lloyd Wright homes around here!

  2. YES - exactly who I meant - oh thank you so much for the pictures. I just drool over houses like this. I knew you would know who/what I was talking about! Good job! Can you design one for me? :)
