ARCHITECTURAL SIGNIFICANCE (Describe important architectural features and <br /> evaluate in terms of other buildings within the community.) <br /> Part of Five Fields, a community of contemporary houses designed and <br /> developed by The Architects Collaborative (TAC) , this house is one of their early <br /> designs using post and beam construction and a 12-foot by 12-foot module. Like <br /> other Five Fields houses it has an open living/dining/kitchen area, smaller <br /> windows toward the street, and living room and large areas of glass at the back, <br /> facing the sun and view. <br /> HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE (Explain the role owners played in local or state <br /> history and how the building relates to the development of the community.) <br /> Built in 1953 and designed by The Architects Collaborative (TAC) , this <br /> house is in the second section of Five Fields to be developed (see Five Fields <br /> area form) . It was one of the models intended to provide more opportunities for <br /> custom design; other variations on this plan are at 476 and 440 Concord Avenue. <br /> This house has been modified by the extension of the living room to the south. <br /> BIBLIOGRAPHY and/or REFERENCES (name of publication, author, date and publisher) <br /> Better Homes and Gardens, March 1955, pp. 56-57, 165, 167. <br /> 10NI - 7/82 <br />
