Gropius - Breuer: Josephine M. Hagerty House - Cohasset, MA USA, 1938

Josephine M. Hagerty House is a historic home at 357 Atlantic Avenue in Cohasset, Massachusetts. Built in 1938, it was the first building in the United States commissioned to Bauhaus architect Walter Gropius, who collaborated with Marcel Breuer on its design. It is one of the first American examples of international-style architecture and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997.
In this house, Gropius emphasized simple lines and the use of local materials, wood and stone.
