Richard C. Smith House, Single-family residential architecture in Jefferson, United States.
The Richard C. Smith House is a residential structure in Jefferson designed with an unusual geometric form. It uses diamond-shaped units and extensive windows to frame views of a terrace and golf course beyond.
A renowned architect designed this house in 1950 using his distinctive diamond module concept. This design principle also appeared in his plans for other homes in the area.
The residence shows how modern design can connect a home to its surroundings. Residents could enjoy views of the golf course and landscape directly from inside.
The house sits in a location offering views of a golf course and open landscape. The north side was built with limestone, while the south side features multiple windows for interior light and views.
