House VI, Single-family detached home in Cornwall, New York.
House VI features a grid-based design with intersecting planes, visible structural elements, and geometric forms that create distinct spatial experiences throughout the residence.
Architect Peter Eisenman completed House VI in 1975 for Richard Frank and his wife, marking a significant departure from traditional residential architecture principles.
The residence influenced architectural education and professional practice by demonstrating how abstract concepts and spatial theory could be applied to residential construction.
House VI contains unconventional living spaces, including a bedroom divided by a glass slot and a kitchen with an overhead column that affects daily activities.
The structure includes an upside-down red staircase and beams that meet without intersecting, requiring residents to adapt their routines to the architectural layout.
