Highlights American architecture best in a range of styles and eras-from James Deering's Vizcaya, his 1916 Italian Renaissance-inspired villa in Miami, to postwar marvels by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and Marcel Breuer, to more recent construction , such as Marwan Al-Sayed's mirage-like House of Earth and Light in the Southwest desert. Feature works that blur the lines between dwellings and art.
