DWR contest to identify the architect of a 1952 modern home

The recent DWR newsletter features a contest to identify the designer or location of a 1952 house by an "influential but relatively obscure" architect. The first 20 responses to either name the architect or the location of the residence will receive a book devoted to the architect in question.

The images are worth a peek even if the contest doesn't appeal to you.

I took a stab at it... but I'm not giving away my answer, you big fat cheater, you. Here are some clues:

The residence stands largely as it was built in 1952. It is located on a hill overseeing a large body of water, about 40 miles from a major city. All of the rooms have unique views and are connected in a manner so well resolved that the house provides spatial discovery and enjoyment at most any point. Its relationship to the environment is particularly intelligent, inspiring and fluid.
