Welcome to the Archives of The Paul Rudolph Institute for Modern Architecture. The purpose of this online collection is to function as a tool for scholars, students, architects, preservationists, journalists and other interested parties. The archive consists of photographs, slides, articles and publications from Rudolph’s lifetime; physical drawings and models; personal photos and memorabilia; and contemporary photographs and articles.

Some of the materials are in the public domain, some are offered under Creative Commons, and some  are owned by others, including the Paul Rudolph Estate. Please speak with a representative of The Paul Rudolph Institute for Modern Architecture before using any drawings or photos in the Archives. In all cases, the researcher shall determine how to appropriately publish or otherwise distribute the materials found in this collection, while maintaining appropriate protection of the applicable intellectual property rights.

In his will, Paul Rudolph gave his Architectural Archives (including drawings, plans, renderings, blueprints, models and other materials prepared in connection with his professional practice of architecture) to the Library of Congress Trust Fund following his death in 1997. A Stipulation of Settlement, signed on June 6, 2001 between the Paul Rudolph Estate and the Library of Congress Trust Fund, resulted in the transfer of those items to the Library of Congress among the Architectural Archives, that the Library of Congress determined suitable for its collections.  The intellectual property rights of items transferred to the Library of Congress are in the public domain. The usage of the Paul M. Rudolph Archive at the Library of Congress and any intellectual property rights are governed by the Library of Congress Rights and Permissions.

However, the Library of Congress has not received the entirety of the Paul Rudolph architectural works, and therefore ownership and intellectual property rights of any materials that were not selected by the Library of Congress may not be in the public domain and may belong to the Paul Rudolph Estate.

Burnette Residence

  • The walls and roofs have been exhibited as planes of reinforced concrete flat-slab construction.

  • The steel arrangement carries out most of the structural functions and is independent from the layout of planes.

  • All the concrete surfaces have been plastered to give the house a monolithic quality.

  • In 1970 the residence is sold for $78,200.

  • In 2011 the sea wall cap is replaced.

  • It was remodeled in the 1990's by Joe Angeleri

  • In January 2016 the residence is listed for sale by Michael and Cynthia Lieberbaum for $5,895,000. In March 2016 it is sold for $5,250,000 to Robert L. Taylor and Edith Cooper.

  • In 2018 the house is demolished to make room for a bigger house. Guy Peterson is the architect and Michael Walker the builder, with Damien Blumetti, AIA, handling construction administration. Guy Peterson is the architect who renovated the Rudolph & Twitchell designed 1948 Revere Quality House and also designed a new larger house adjacent to it in 2004.
