From the Atomic Ranch Achrives (Fall Issue, 2017): A 1952 charmer nestled in the middle of the postwar colonial neighborhood of Prairie Village, Kansas. ⁠
Just sharing the inspiring curb appeal and original features of this 1953 ranch in Joilet, Illinois. ⁠
Nature, history and mid century modern design intertwine on a storied North Carolina property that rises 230 feet up from the road. On old maps, the property is historically known “Stillhouse Bluff.” Decades ago, moonshiners flocked to it because of its native hickory trees. Hickory logs burn very hot and long and with little smoke, so they could remain incognito from the long arm of the law. Legend is woven over the land and people say the mountain is still haunted by the moonshiners.⁠
If there is one building that divides Bostonians, it is the notorious Boston City Hall. This Brutalist structure looms imposingly over Boston City Hall Plaza, drawing both criticism and praise. But for many Bostonians, it is simply a source of puzzlement. They wonder why such an unusual design was selected for the city hall to begin with.⁠
From the Atomic Ranch Archives (Fall Issue, 2016): A Riverside, CA home designed by Edward Donaldson and built by Al O'Rourke in 1959. As noted by the stamp in the cement in front of the property, the home is a Medallion Home, famous for their tagline of “Live Better Electrically.”⁠
Located in Michigan City, Indiana, The Frost House was an oddity even in 1964. Its flat roof and prefabricated aluminum and baked-enamel finishes were an industry first. With glass walls and aluminum panels fitted into a steel framework, the house’s specific design was patented and presented as a different and beautiful point of departure from other futuristic houses.⁠
