They hatched the idea of this rarefied version of Airbnb after spending some time at Sawtooth Cabin, a marvelous minimalist pavilion on Lake Superior, designed by their former architecture professor Julie Snow.<\/p>\n<p>So exhilarated were they by living in a space where inside and out truly merged that they became determined to help others experience it \u2014 and other exceptional works of contemporary architecture.<\/p>\n<p>Plans Matter has been up for two years, but the site is only now establishing critical mass with a worldwide selection of offerings. \u201cInitially, we had zero properties,\u201d says Muellner with a chuckle. \u201cIt took a long time to get through to the right people and get homes secured for the site. Now, we have a backlog of hosts with amazing properties we haven\u2019t yet processed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>New listings will be appearing throughout the fall, but don\u2019t wait to visit the site as there\u2019s already embarrassment of architectural riches.

He eventually ended up in Los Angeles as Wright\u2019s architectural factotum to supervise the building of the Barnsdall House.<\/p>\n<p>Not long after, he went solo, realizing his own wildly original visions of the modern house, informed by the Southern California landscape, the pioneering spirit of his clients and new construction methods. Schindler\u2019s 1939 Mackey Apartments included three rental units, and a two-story penthouse suite for his client, Pearl M. Mackey.<\/p>\n<p>Each apartment is distinct, although all share inventive compact layouts, a clever use of natural light, built-in furniture, ceilings of variable height and private outdoor spaces. In 1995, the building was acquired and renovated by the MAK Center for Art and Architecture in Vienna to host its artists and architects residency program. But the penthouse is available for all architecture lovers to rent.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Bruno Taut House, Berlin<\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_248993\" style=\"width: 960px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-248993\" class=\"wp-image-248993\" src=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/Taut_HERO.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"950\" height=\"634\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/Taut_HERO.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/Taut_HERO-525x350.jpg 525w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/Taut_HERO-950x634.jpg 950w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/Taut_HERO-120x80.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/Taut_HERO-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/Taut_HERO-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/Taut_HERO-1399x933.jpg 1399w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-248993\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The modest but highly refined Berlin home of Bruno Taut, one of the early masters of modernism.

At the opening of the groundbreaking Weissenhof Estate exhibition in Stuttgart, which launched the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/furniture\/style\/international-style\/\">International Style<\/a> in 1927, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/creators\/le-corbusier\/\">Le Corbusier<\/a> was so shocked by Taut\u2019s colorful structure that he exclaimed \u201cMy God, Taut is color blind!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Taut\u2019s own Berlin house, part of his Horseshoe Housing Estate may be tiny, but it shows him to be a great master at manipulating tone and hue to affect the experience of space. When it was for sale a few years ago, Katrin Lesser and Ben Buschfeld, a married landscape architect and graphic designer, who live in the complex, went to see the home and were so moved that they tried to raise public funds to renovate it and turn it into a museum.<\/p>\n<p>When they failed to get the funding, they bought it themselves, restored it and turned it into a \u201crentable museum\u201d \u2014 such was their passion. The house has since been granted the European Union Prize for Cultural Heritage and the Berlin Monument Award. Stay here when visiting Berlin, and you will be helping fund the preservation of an early modernist treasure.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Peter Zumthor Villa, Leis, Switzerland<\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_249083\" style=\"width: 2010px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-249083\" class=\"wp-image-249083 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hero_zumthor.jpg\" alt=\"Only Peter Zumthor could make a spartan pine interior look this luxe.\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hero_zumthor.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hero_zumthor-525x350.jpg 525w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hero_zumthor-950x633.jpg 950w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hero_zumthor-120x80.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hero_zumthor-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hero_zumthor-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hero_zumthor-1400x933.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-249083\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Only Peter Zumthor could make a spartan pine interior look this luxe.
