Built in 1957 by Spanish architect Josep Lluis Sert as his own private residence, this house in Cambridge, Massachusetts, is recognised as one of the most unique designs of his career.
Sert produced over fifteen variations of the home in his designs, all of which were centred around the idea of an enclosed courtyard bounded by walls.
