 Henry was a great admirer of R. Buckminster Fuller and he made a deposit on Fuller's Dymaxion House, a prefabricated structure that could be assembled at any site.When none but two prototypes of this house were built, Henry decided to become the architect of his own passive solar home which was one of the first of its kind in America.The Henry P. Glass House was built in 1948 and it still stands on its original site in Northfield, Illinois.
