Welcome to ModernHomesPhiladelphia.com

The Philadelphia area has a wealth of innovative mid-century modern residential architecture.   ModernHomesPhiladelphia.com is a resource of information promoting the history and architectural significance of these homes, slowing their loss to development.

Louis Kahn, Richard Neutra and Frank Lloyd Wright are a few of the architects who have contributed to the legacy of great modernist homes in the Philadelphia area. Some of the characteristics of a Philadelphia mid-century home are openness, an indoor outdoor connection and simplicity of design.  These unique homes are either clustered into small groups or stand alone surrounded by more traditional homes.  The serene woodland settings, unique design and the use of local stone set the Philadelphia mid-century homes apart from those around the country.  In this area, and across the country, there has been a surge of interest in modernist architecture over the past fifteen years.

There is no better resource to help you discover the beauty of the Philadelphia mid-century and modern homes than local expert and modern and mid-century home aficionado Craig Wakefield.
