Also known as the Carrier Weathermaker National Prize Winning House, this was a showcase home in a moderate price range designed to exhibit the benefits of air conditioning, something new to home design at the time. The architects won a $5,000 prize from the Carrier company for this design in 1953. The magazine “Living For Young Homemakers” featured it in the April 1954 issue. The house was also featured in the Raleigh News and Observer of January 30, 1954. Source: https://usmodernist.org/catalano.htm
