Hauer-King House, Neofuturist residential house in Canonbury, London, England.

The Hauer-King House features twenty-two large steel-framed glass panels across its front, top, and rear sections, incorporating double glazing for thermal insulation.

Architect Jan Kaplický, who left Czechoslovakia following the 1968 Soviet invasion, completed this residential project in 1994 through his firm Future Systems.

The house demonstrates a shift in residential architecture by combining modern design elements with traditional materials like brick to complement neighboring structures.

The four-story residence positions the living area and kitchen below street level, with direct garden access, while bedrooms occupy the upper floors.

Colored storage units and bathrooms function as room dividers, creating a stark contrast against the predominantly white interiors of this steel-framed structure.

Location: London
