Shane Hood sometimes I believ living well and comfortably are subjective notions. I have glass all the way across the back of my house and it loses heat in the winter, but I wear a sweater if it gets too cold because having all the glass across the back of my house allows me to live well and more comfortable than if I had a wall with a couple winodws.

Shane Hood there is that too GSI, technology has made it easy to live well and comfortable whatever your definition in modern architecture

Shane Hood Sometimes I believe spelling and punctuation is subjective as well.

endeavourdesign The best part of lists like this is that it engenders discussion. You could have made a list of 50 houses from the Modern movement (the actual architectural historical classification for such....not semantics as some have dealt with above ad-nauseum) and many of us would still be thinking...."you missed one!" Although, no Fallingwater seems a bit of an omission. :) Thank you for the clarification on the Johnson Glass house versus the Farnsworth House. For those that have visited both...the Farnsworth House is superior. Also, the Smith House or Douglas House by Richard Meier can certainly be considered 'iconic.'

joani duval Great to read the comments but consider outside North America where some great architecture could be informing our thinking
