Beatty (& Beatty) & Strang

Hamilton Beatty, Gwenydd (Chewett) Beatty, and Allen Strang were architects who together designed the first International Style buildings in and around Madison, Wisconsin from 1930 to 1941. The Beattys worked together on a houses and proposed plans from 1930 to 1934, while Strang designed two houses outside of Madison in 1934. Beginning in 1935, Hamilton Beatty and Strang worked together on at least 36 houses, school additions, and some proposed plans. (Gwenydd Beatty apparently had no role in that work.) In 1940, Beatty left Madison and became an industrial designer. In 1942, Strang went to Chicago to work for the Federal Housing Authority.
