Historical/Biographical Note

Collens, Willis and Beckonert architects worked in Boston, Massachusetts from 1946-1962. Charles Collens, of Newton, Massachusetts, reorganized the firms after the death of his former partner, Francis R. Allen. The previous iteration, Allen and Collens, was known for gothic revival architecture and specializing in churches and college buildings.

This set of renderings for a private residence in Temple, New Hampshire demonstrates a more modern style, popular during the mid twentieth century.
