In the 1960s and 70s, the peaceful, wooded hills of Greenwich and Stamford, Connecticut, proved to be an ideal location for forward-thinking people to build their progressive homes. Join us on a tour that explores an exciting collection of these historic places, inside and out.Modernist architecture in America flourished from the 1930s through the 70s and encompasses Midcentury Modern, Brutalist, International, and other movements that produced a wide range of expressions. What they all have in common, as described by the National Trust for Historic Preservation, is "a design language with an emphasis on form rather than ornament; structure and materials rather than picturesque constructions; and the rational and efficient use of space."
From the comfort of a charter bus, this tour will highlight modernist architecture in Greenwich and Stamford with several special stops to step inside some great modernist homes! Interior tours in Stamford include a monumental David Specter residence and the 1971 Hoffman House by locally renowned architect James Evans. Greenwich interior tours include a bold 1970s stone house built by Norwegian stonemasons and the 1961 Edwin Paul House, one of the town's officially designated landmarks.
