Re: Archives to Avery Library/ Columbia University
Is it possible to download the images or are these all screen grabs? Everything I'm finding is not downloadable.

SDR, I completely understand what you're saying about nerve. It's what's stopped me up until this point. There were two factors that have made me want to at least give this a try (I make no promises on following through though, just trying). The first was I purchased a book called Americans in Paris...

I'm sorry that I haven't posted in such a long time on this topic, but I got a new job about two months ago and life has been really hectic. I did manage to go back to the model and make some (to me) pretty significant changes. What David posted is much closer to what is shown in the retouched photo...

Traditional Architectural Rendering Techniques
Back when I was studying architecture at Kent State (1997-2003) a friend of mine got an ad in the mail for a summer class in New York City that would teach traditional architectural rendering techniques. It was mostly ink and watercolor on paper. They had images of what some students had done and it...

Pelli also designed what is today the Key Bank Building in Cleveland, the tallest building in Ohio. I've always found it to be rather elegant, though I'm not a fan of the red keys at the top.

Thanks SDR, very interesting. It appears there is still some furniture and many windows missing, but I get that these things are expensive and take time. The Martin House website says that the 394 windows were the "single largest collection of Wright's career". I disagree. Surely the Imperial Hotel ...

DRN, the fact that you included Borromini just warmed my heart. I'd throw Guarino Guarini onto the Baroque list as well.

THANK YOU SDR!!! Wow, what a beauty! And what a monster. Could you imagine being up on that third floor up on a hill overlooking Lake Michigan? Gorgeous stuff. In my researches, I found that Paul Kruty had a model made of the house for an exhibition several years ago. The catalogue is hard to find a...

Metzger House
I've been digging through my Wright books lately, and I'm becoming extremely intrigued by the unbuilt Victor E. Metzger House of 1902. It was published in the Wasmuth, and there seem to be a number of perspectives floating around out there. To me, it appears huge, robust, and inviting. I'm rather sm...

Fallingwater sent me a very prompt reply. They said they had no record of The Rock being on display there. Furthermore, Franklin Toker's Fallingwater Rising says that the painting was displayed at either their Pittsburgh or Palm Springs residence. I have now reached out to the Art Institute of Chica...
