Documenting, Preserving, & Promoting Modernist Residential Architecture

USModernist is an award-winning nonprofit 501C3 educational archive for the documentation, preservation, and promotion of residential Modernist architecture.

America's brilliant mid-century Modernist houses are livable works of art sadly torn down in record numbers, largely because buyers, sellers, and realtors do not realize the importance of what they have or how to preserve, repair, and protect these houses. You cannot save something without knowing where it is or why it is important.

With four major sections, 7,500 houses, and nearly 3,000,000 pages of 20th-cenutry architecture magazines, USModernist is America's largest open digital archive of Modernist houses and their architects.
