Sam and Shirley Strauss House

The Sam and Shirley Strauss House is a historic house at 4 Sunset Drive in Cammack Village, Arkansas. It is a single story structure built out of a combination of brick and wood, with a broad shallow-pitch sloping roof. The roof extends on the east side to cover an open carport. At one point in the roof there is a gap, originally made for a tree standing on the property at the time of the house's construction. The exterior is clad in vertical redwood siding, with a variety of window configurations. The house, designed by Little Rock architect Noland Blass Jr., and built in 1963–64, is an excellent regional example of Mid-Century Modern architecture.[2]
