The Boissonnas House (Casa Boissonnas), designed by Philip Johnson for Eric Boissonnas and his family, was completed in 1956 with a series of pavilions constructed of steel, brick, and glass. The house plan was zoned into three areas: a bedroom wing (four bedrooms + three full baths + a half bath); a service wing (kitchen + two maid’s rooms + a bath); and a social wing (living room + dining room). All three wings were joined by an entry foyer. The two-story living room contained an organ and was described in 1957 in the New York Times as an “acoustical chamber.”
