George Fred Keck

George Frederick Keck (1895–1980) was an American modernist architect based in Chicago, Illinois.

Starting in the 1920s, he worked as a draftsman for several Chicago firms, including D. H. Burnham & Company and Schmidt, Garden and Martin.

[2] Keck designed two key model structures for the Century of Progress exhibition in Chicago in 1933; dubbed the "House of Tomorrow".

[3][4][5] At the time of its construction, the media dubbed the House of Tomorrow as “America’s first glass house.”[6] These two structures played in key role in the development of Keck's form of modernism.

Rapson also worked in Keck's office during this period, as did fellow New Bauhaus School professor Robert Bruce Tague.
