Five Architects you Need to Know

We won't keep you in suspense, they're the Harvard Five, a group of forward thinking architects who met at Harvard, then infiltrated New Canaan, Conn.  There, they built modern homes without a care as to what those traditional New Canaanites would think, but they sure got an earful of opinions.

From public meetings to published poetry, modern architecture became political and the Harvard Five (Marcel Breuer, Landis Gores, Philip Johnson, John Johansen and Eliot Noise) left New Canaan with a modern legacy the neighbors still talk about.
