Jacobson House (Tucson, Arizona)

The Jacobson House is a residential building located in Tucson, Arizona, designed by the American architect Judith Chafee.

In 1962 she accepted a position with Walter Gropius' The Architects Collaborative (TAC) and worked on education projects for Brandeis University and Radcliffe College.

After a year in Cambridge, Massachusetts, she accepted a position with Eero Saarinen and Associates in Connecticut where she worked on projects including Cummings Diesel in Darlington England and the international terminal for the TWA Flight Center at John F. Kennedy Airport.

She then worked for five years at the Edward Larrabee Barnes Office in New Haven and ran a small private practice.

The house remains a testament to Chafee's design philosophy, which sought to create architecture that was both sensitive to its context and responsive to the needs of its inhabitants.
