Chase—The Chase Residence takes a magnifying glass to Chase’s trailblazing career, providing context to the history of Black architecture in the American South."" * Dwell * ""What makes John S. Chase—The Chase Residence so unique is its unprecedented look beyond the checklist of firsts, as [David] Heymann and historian Stephen Fox shed much needed light on Chase’s actual work as an architect. They do this by offering a thoroughly detailed ode to Chase’s most personal project: his dream home."" * Tribeza * ""With detailed new drawings, candid family photos, and personal anecdotes based on interviews with Chase’s wife, Drucie, and other relatives, Heymann traces how the iterations of the home reveal the architect’s growth as a designer and community leader, as well as his evolving aesthetic, which, earlier in Chase’s career, tended toward Mies, then later skewed Wright. Fox, an architectural historian, frames Chase’s work in the broader historic and cultural context of the time."" * Architectural Record *" [Biscuits, the Dole, and Nodding Donkeys] deserves a place on the scholar's shelf...Ozanne deserves great credit for bringing Brown's last work to light. * Dwell * Author InformationDavid Heymann, FAIA, is the Harwell Hamilton Harris Regents Professor at The University of Texas at Austin.
