The Edith Farnsworth House

The Edith Farnsworth House was published in 2024 by Monacelli/Phaidon. A large-format illustrated volume with beautiful images, the book examines the landmark work of Mies van der Rohe through the lens of its patron and owner, Edith Farnsworth. Lewis provided the essay that compares and contrasts the Glass House by Philip Johnson with the Farnsworth, two homes built at nearly the same time, which have a rich, shared history. The publication was recognized with the Citation of Merit by DOCOMOMO's Modernism in America Awards (2024).
