Material related to studying the work of Richard Meier including architectural drawings of some of his private projects as well as written information about his career and firms he worked with.

• Walter Gropius and other architects from the post war generation

The aim of this study is to address the priorities taken from Le Corbusier's private buildings: clarity & expression of structure, vertical circulation as a major design element, use of double height living spaces, and natural influence.
Then, the architect moved to study some examples from Richard Meier's houses, like: Smith house, Saltzman house, and Shamberg house.
