Detail from the Brick House. As opposed to the transparency of the Glass House, brick almost completely encases the house. The only windows, with the exception of the skylights, are large circular forms at the rear of the building. The series of round openings alludes to Filippo Brunelleschi’s fifteenth-century Duomo in Florence. #theglasshouse_newcanaan #BrickHouse #trustsites #midcenturymodern #architecture #newcanaan #connecticut
