Although the house was refurbished before North bought it in 1996, it still includes some of Breuer's original built-in furniture, including the desk in the bedroom, as well as a chair designed by the architect.

Originally built in 1996, the home was recently treated to a complete overhaul.

Petra Island is only accessible via boat and helicopter. Massaro purchased the island for $700,000 in 1996.

Fifty miles north of New York City, a controversial home and guesthouse were built from Frank Lloyd Wright’s drawings on a private island. Intriguingly, the main home was completed in 1996 following Wright's original sketches for the 1950s owner of the island, who ultimately instead commissioned a 1,200-square-foot home on the island because of the high cost. Today, that 1,200-square-foot home serves as a three-bedroom guesthouse—the perfect space for extended family to stay.

As the house is situated on a steep slope, visitors enter only to be whisked upstairs to the main living space. The facade was designed by Bob Hatfield in 1996. A new glass and steel door, designed by Chris Deam and fabricated by Sand Studios, was added in the renovation.

The 1996 Therme Vals thermal spring baths in Switzerland are perhaps Zumthor’s best-known design, situated as they are in a hillside luxury hotel complex.

This Knotted chair (1996) is a 1:6 model version, produced by Vitra, and is only a few inches high. Its larger relatives—produced by Cappellini—have already found their way into a number of museum collections.

In 2018, yet another severe flood threatened the Farnsworth House. In 1996, windows broke, and art was swept down the river during a tragic flood.

"I went on my first trip to Norway in 1996," Schluchtmann says. "The landscape and the light left such a strong impression on me that I decided to give up my law studies and to go to Berlin to become a photographer."

Description: Famed So-Cal residential architect Rex Lotery self-designed this glowing 3,779 square foot home in 1996, implementing tall cathedral ceilings, spacious living spaces and innovative window placement, accentuating the play of light as the sun moves over the hilly 1+ acre property. The bedrooms feature dramatic picture windows with mountain views of the Montecito hills. Other features include two fireplaces, a remodeled kitchen, hardwood and stone flooring, and for the creative tenants—an art studio.

The home, which was originally designed by local architect Seymour Rutkin, was completed in 1996 according to his ideals of sustainable living. Although he passed away in 2007, Lydia and Ian were quick to appreciate the residence: “It's immediately apparent that the architect Rutkin deeply considered the impact of space and environment on human spirit and creativity,” Lydia says.

Good Goods Catalogue -- La Redoute (1996) Starck’s sense of humor and ecological passion come through in this catalog of “non-products for non-consumers in tomorrow's moral market,” both an environmental message and an about face from some of his more over-the-top projects. Witness the “Starck Naked” Starck roll-on dress.
