Stillman House I was designed by Marcel Breuer in Litchfield, Connecticut, United States, in 1950. It follows Breuer's demonstration "House in the Museum Garden" built the year before for the Museum of Modern Art, which now sits at the Rockefeller Kykuit estate in New York's Hudson Valley. The site boasts three separate architectural commissions by Breuer between 1950–1953: a main house, a studio, and pool and porch redesign, with the latter featuring an 18'x10' pool mural wall by friend and sculptor, Alexander Calder. During this time, fellow first-generation Bauhaus friend and artist, Xanti Schawinsky, executed an interior mural wall as well.
