Description

Noted architect and curator A. James Speyer (1913-1986) was born in the Woodland Road district of Pittsburgh, which contains not only 19th-century gems but some of the city’s most exemplary modern houses. Among them is the Apt House, commissioned by Jerome Apt Jr. and Joan Frank Apt in 1951 and completed in 1953. After graduating from Carnegie Tech in 1934, where the Beaux Arts tradition was still the norm, Speyer traveled to Europe, encountering the Bauhaus movement and avantgarde architecture....Noted architect and curator A. James Speyer (1913-1986) was born in the Woodland Road district of Pittsburgh, which contains not only 19th-century gems but some of the city’s most exemplary modern houses. Among them is the Apt House, commissioned by Jerome Apt Jr. and Joan Frank Apt in 1951 and completed in 1953. After graduating from Carnegie Tech in 1934, where the Beaux Arts tradition was still the norm, Speyer traveled to Europe, encountering the Bauhaus movement and avantgarde architecture. Graduate studies in Chicago with Mies van der Rohe led further to the development of Speyer’s modern aesthetic. An echo of Frank Lloyd Wright’s Fallingwater can be noted in the design elements and materials found in this masterwork, along with arches that could be a nod to H. H. Richardson’s Allegheny County Courthouse. The inspired design of this notable residence makes perfect use of its lovely, wooded setting. Approximately 1.5 acres with tennis court.
