「案例住宅計畫」（1945–66）是美國建築史上一次非凡且創新的盛事，至今仍獨樹一幟。該計畫聚焦於洛杉磯地區，監督了36棟原型住宅的設計，旨在提供戰後建築熱潮中能輕鬆且低成本建造的現代住宅藍圖。
該計畫的主要推動力來自《藝術與建築》雜誌主編約翰·恩滕扎，他是現代主義的擁護者，擁有廣泛的人脈，吸引了理查·諾伊特拉、查爾斯與雷·伊姆斯、埃羅·沙里寧等建築界巨擘。該計畫極具實驗性，所產生的住宅旨在重新定義現代家居，因此在計畫期間乃至今日，都對美國及國際建築產生了深遠影響。
TASCHEN 為您呈獻該計畫的全面回顧，包含詳盡文獻、當時的精彩照片，以及針對現存住宅的當代攝影，並附有豐富的平面圖與草稿。
This book finally gives the CSH program the serious, comprehensive treatment it deserves—the thick archival sections alone are worth it for anyone geeking out on postwar LA modernism. The floor plans and period photos feel like you’re flipping through the original 1940s magazines.
I've been looking for a book that covers the full breadth of the CSH program rather than just the famous Stahl House, and this one delivers that and more. The essays give real context to the Los Angeles housing boom, making it easy to understand why the program was so innovative.
The floor plans and period photos finally make the post-war LA architecture click for me, and the book's sturdy coffee-table size means I can actually read the captions without squinting. It's dense but never dry—I keep finding a new detail each time I open it.
