Wright Chat

Case closed.

The article said a family of five lived in one.
...which prompts me to ask the range of experience here ... what are the design issues for a family of five in a townhouse or apartment like this?

Looks like the concrete blocks are custom. Like this project. Thanks for the introduction.

A quick net search yields no plans. Would love to see them.

You've convinced me.

He cried?

Looking forward to that. Cool.

Cantilevered bricks.

Whoa!
On my list.

But that room does remind me of Fallingwater. The low ceiling height and the surrounding glass I think.
The dust cover on M3! Never knew about that either. I have always specially admired that photograph and assumed it was Wright's work.

RG, okay, thanks for correcting me on that. I definitely would not want to continue in that mistake. I need to study this project and thread for a time before more questions. Again thanks.

The shot of that room with the green floor covering reminds me of the Livingroom at Fallingwater. It is curious what Wright did with just a little bit or how the opening up of interior space was such a radical thing then.

Complicated history there. Hard to keep track.

In the realtor link provided by Mod mom, the last shot in the series is of a large empty room with wrinkled green floor covering and fallen plaster from the ceiling. Any body know where this room is located in the overall plan?

I've never seen any of these interiors before, just great.

SDR, thanks for your sympathy the reason for which I know you share at least in part. I disagree that the site deserves to be used. But arguing this would ruin my day. I understand something of what you are trying to say but honestly I'm just not there. I'd prefer to see the pile taken down, the pro...

Okay. But I think I disagree that the present state of the house is better than demolition.
