Hamilton Goody Architects (Hamilton, Goody, Clancy, or Marvin E. Goody with John M. Clancy, or Goody, Clancy & Associates, Inc.) is a firm founded in the 1950s by MIT faculty members Marvin Goody and Richard Hamilton. It focused on building materials research, and exploration of modular housing and innovative construction systems, to improve housing design, livability, and affordability. This culminated in the design of the Monsanto House of the Future, placed on exhibit at Disneyland for 20 years.
