The flowing living areas surround a large and open high ceilinged kitchen still with original arrangement and cabinetry. The breakfast room has an original wall mural, metal screen space dividers, planter box and likely a Higgins glass Rondelay window screen. Many other delightful vintage features complete the scene. Houston Mod publications make excellent gifts and will be available at this location on Sunday. 7 Buffalo Ridge Circle, Indian Trail, Houston, Texas, 77056 HAR Link | Google Map Architect Ralph Anderson designed this AIA award winning house in 1978 for fellow Rice architecture alum David Chapman and wife Erminie Chambers. Anderson (1923-1990), joined the prominent architecture firm of Wilson, Morris & Crain in 1947 and became a partner in 1952. His other projects include the Astrodome, Houston Post Building, and the endangered Frank Erwin Center. The design for the Chapman house provides numerous decks and walls of glass making the most of the lush wooded ravine setting. Additional features include art display walls, dramatic sloped ceilings, sky roofs, lofts, catering area, and a motor court, all magnificently maintained. It's Member November!

I saw this on HAR.com a single family mod that looks like a duplex with a 1 car garage and driveway at each end of the home. http://search.har.com/engine/5702-Warm-Springs-Rd-Houston-TX-77035_HAR97028417.htm

What MCM homes are currently for sale in the greater Houston area? 3807 Macgregor Way, Houston, TX 77021 is available, and while a gorgeous design, it is totally wrecked. http://search.har.com/engine/3807-Macgregor-Wa-Houston-77021-1531_HAR9555984.htm More photos of interior here...http://www.houstonarchitecture.com/haif/topic/8427-3807-south-macgregor-way/ Its a shame the realtor has it severely overpriced and is basically letting it rot away.
