In the above Ausge-picture it looks like the gates were removed and only the suspension construction remains. The length of the shed shadow under the suspension construction is not long enough. What I don't see in the Ausge-picture is this gate: https://www.flickr.com/photos/zaruka/32999049604/in/ph...

Where would the first picture be located in the Home and Studio ?

There is a top "chord" to the steel in the window wall. It may be that the connections of the verticals to that "chord" are rigid - welded. A top "chord" would be pulled down under the gable rooftop to a straigh line from posttop to posttop. I'd love to see a structura...

The other head of the same tank ? https://www.flickr.com/photos/arizona_native/33563701735/in/photolist-T8UKbF-RRnReY-RTWk7z-T5jBUd-T8Udja-T5jkHq-RTVC7D-RTVqKk-SRcxro-Sp5yEd-SGrpYU-RDC78Q-RxWxDu-RxWxay-RAtBmp-SDa5ta-SfCcf9-RxWv6J-SDa52Z-RAtz7z-RAtyj2-SAGpKo-SQrkSx-SAGpBN-SQrkDg-SAGpt1-SDa2Xi-SDa2Tv-...

Section E-E: I would continue both walls and the insulated cavity above the roof to the wall tops: better insulation in the corner of wall and ceiling and a less risky support of the thicker wall above the insulation on a thinner wall. Plan: weird sequence from the entry, through a bedroom, through ...

I seem to remember that the executed Greiner house had an exterior look of a swiss chalet, mostly wood outside. When I see it now on Google street view (corner of Taliesin Drive and Parkwyn Drive) I see a lot of brick. Maybe a later addition?

Some books list an executed design by Mr. Wright for Ward Greiner at 2617 Taliesin Drive, Kalamazoo. A long time ago, when I saw it, I doubted it to be a Wright design. When I stood there doubting, the owners left by car, stopped beside me, and told me that it was initially a Wright design, but that...

Maybe a hand might fit through the openings to change the light bulbs, but how to install the sockets remains a problem. The three rows of openings look only taller because of the absent horizontal joints: the standard brick courses continue left and right of the openings. What's the effectiveness o...

There are indeed light bulbs behind the brick screen. See: https://lamodern.com/frank-lloyd-wright-sturges-residence/page-1-frank-lloyd-wright-sturges-residence/ High to reach up from the cellar through the 'heating flue' (behind the wooden door) to change the light bulbs? And could there be some 'f...

Still looking for how to change the lightbulbs behind the brick openings (ahead the dining-table) ??

And does anybody know how to change the lightbulbs (and install the sockets) behind small openings in brick walls, for example in the - Palmer house: in brick piers between living/dining and terrace - Walter house: in entry, fire, dining walls - Lloyd Lewis house: in wall-head of workspace towards d...
