Peter Grueneisenโs architectural practice is characterised by a rather hands on and flexible approach to modern architecture.
Such an approach partly arises from the practice architectโs background.
Situated in Littleton, Denver, Colarado, it uses a sparing palette of natural colours to fit the stone walls and tiling. Meanwhile, bolder colours are used sparingly, with a few touches of red throughout: in the lounge chair, the hood of the cooker and the letterbox.
Richard Neutraโs VDL Research House is surely the building whose history best captures the life of its architect.
Named โVDLโ after the wealthy Dutch industrialist Cees H. Van der Leeuw, Neutraโs early benefactor, it served as the architectโs own home and studio for much of his career.
