The Chinese-American architect Pei is famous for designing structures like the Louvre’s Pyramid in Paris and Dallas landmarks like the Morton H. Meyerson Symphony Center and Dallas City Hall.
However, Pei didn’t design many homes in his career. He is credited with building the Fort Worth mansion, the William L. Slayton House in Washington, D.C., and a weekend house that he built for himself in Katonah, N.Y.
