Wall House 2 (A. E. Bye House) project, Ridgefield, Connecticut (Rear axonometric projection)

John Hejduk

1973

A colored-pencil on sepia diazo print axonometric that presents John Hejduk’s Wall House 2 as a sculptural, narrative house—exploring spatial sequence, form, and poetic domesticity rather than conventional functional planning.

As part of Hejduk’s influential Wall House series, this drawing helped shift architectural thinking toward evocative, diagrammatic representation—bridging art and architecture and inspiring later conceptual and formal experiments in postmodern and contemporary practice.
