Frank Lloyd Wright, Fallingwater / Robert McCarter -- Alvar Aalto, Villa Mairea / Richard Weston -- Charles and Ray Eames, Eames House / James Steele.

Each house in this book represents a high point - and, in the case of Fallingwater, perhaps the high point - of the oeuvre of their designers. They are grandly sited or grandly executed, sometimes both, and they each invite examination into the relationship not just between architecture and nature but between man and nature. - Introduction
