The Kaufmann House (a.k.a. Kaufmann Desert House) is a house located in Palm Springs, California, that was designed by architect Richard Neutra in 1946.
It was one of the last domestic projects conducted by Neutra, but it is also arguably one of his most famous homes.
It is "one of the most important examples of International Style architecture in the United States and the only one still in private hands", and was recently up for sale.

For they have their own thoughts.
You may house their bodies but not their souls,
