Case Study House #26

Case Study House #26 was built in San Rafael (near San Francisco) in 1962, on a design by Beverley Thorne.

Intended as the residence of Bethlehem Steel CEO Harrison Fuller, after his death, a TWA pilot/flight attendant couple lived in this home until it was sold in 2015.

The design is based on a simple concept: A shoebox comprised of 8 identical bays, steel-framed and covered with a flat roof. The social spaces are accentuated by a double height space, whose dramatic roof follows the slope of the lot.

Using a steel structure allowed the ultimate indoor/outdoor living experience: All typical exterior walls are fully glazed; also allowing panoramic views over the nearby State Park and golf course.

Landscape designer Garrett Eckbo (EDAW, now Aecom) designed the landscape. Recent renovation and preservation work was conducted by Cord Struckmann, AIA.
