Booth House (Bedford, New York)
The Booth House is a single-story modernist house in Bedford, New York. Built in 1946, the house was American architect Philip Johnson's first residential commission, and is a stylistic precursor to Johnson's better-known 1949 Glass House in New Canaan, Connecticut.
The house's concrete block and plate glass exterior is supported by steel beams and columns, and its interior features a large masonry fireplace. Its design was influenced by Johnson's mentors. Landis Gores described the house as a "cross-breed in concrete block between () Lincoln project for () Bogner and (HREF="http://www.kotoba.ne.jp/word/11/Le Corbusier" TITLE="Le Corbusier">Le Corbusier's ) De Mandrot house from which it had taken its origin: a raised podium."
Johnson designed the house for Richard and Olga Booth, a young couple who wanted a weekend house near Manhattan. Architectural photographer Robert Damora and architect Sirkka Damora purchased the house in 1955 for $23,500 and lived there for 55 years.〔 In 2010, the widowed Sirkka Damora put the house, an studio building, and their lot up for sale, with an asking price of $2 million.
