Fischer House, Modernist residence in Hatboro, Pennsylvania, US.

The Norman Fisher House features two cubic volumes with a stone foundation, cypress wood exterior, and deeply recessed windows creating functional interior spaces.

Architect Louis Kahn constructed this residential property between 1964 and 1967 for Dr. Norman Fisher and his wife Doris with a budget of 45,000 dollars.

The Fisher House demonstrates the evolution of residential architecture in the 1960s through its geometric design and separation of public and private spaces.

The National Register of Historic Places listed property contains innovative window designs that maximize winter light exposure while reducing summer heat penetration.

The residence combines two wooden cubes at different angles, with one rotated 45 degrees from the other to distinguish living areas from private quarters.
