Gerald Luss House, a Modernist home in Ossining, New York, designed by American architect Gerald Luss in 1955, is a wood and glass structure that harmonizes with its woodland surroundings.[1] Renowned for its cantilevered design, the house represents Luss's significant contributions to architecture and design, often overshadowed due to his focus on corporate interiors.[2][3][4] Luss, renowned for his work on Manhattan's Time & Life Building, has recently been reassessed as central to American design following the use of his interiors as a set for the television series Mad Men .[1][5] The Luss House integrated environmental harmony and design order into the home, featuring custom steel frames with glass infills and efficient air distribution systems, notably reflecting Luss's blending of professional and personal aesthetics.[1][5][4]
