Re: Article: FLW Foundation releases line of children's furniture

And a couple of chair "elevators" for Willits, as seen at left and right in this photo: But it's the later period where we've seen no childrens' pieces---that I can recall . . . S What a shot...!! So beautiful... Willits is one of my favorites of all time and could we say that Willits is ...

Re:

Dr. Bulbulian built an addition on the east side of the house in the 1950s. He used it as a home office. It was recently demolished and a new addition built when the current owner built the FLW designed "tower room." (see latest version of blueprints) The interior windows from the master ...

Re:

Dr Storrer's plan: Thanks, this house was in my list. Now I know that the house is not built as Wright original design. In the other hand someone says that the house was built with Wright's designs..? Anyway, Is this floor plan Wrigh'ts design or the as-built floor plan with the changes mentioned? ...

I'm agree with you. I also love that looooong "gallery" along with the wood

Re: House for E Clarke Arnold, Columbus, WI, 1954

The final (built) plan of Arnold (as I think you intend) is found on page one of this thread. It is not Y-shaped; it is a 120-degree V. S Well what I tried to said is the plan with John Howe's later addition. It looks like an Y, doesn't it ..? https://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/e-clarke-and-julia...

Re: House for E Clarke Arnold, Columbus, WI, 1954

We sometimes comment on Wright's recycling of a Usonian plan for a second client. In this case, the precursor was an unbuilt house for Robert Bush, in Palo Alto, CA, designed in 1950. As it turned out, the "clone" was altered before construction, into a new and unique variation of the ori...

Re: The Illinois 'Mile-High' Tower Architectural Model

I believe Reidy said the Price Tower elevator shafts were enlarged, not reduced, compared to those in the St Marks towers . . . I've never seen the Mile-High model. I would have to assume it is at MoMA now, along with other models. The Avery has the drawings, MoMA the physical artifacts. Here is Wr...

Re: RESIDENCE B - Hollyhock House

There is a similar roof treatment at Freeman and, minimally, at Storer. The unbuilt house for Lowes was not RMS, it was by FLW, as seen in Wendingen, a plaster precursor of Storer. I believe Residence A was sketched by FLW as the Director's House, and RMS fleshed it out considerably. The plan has e...

Re: RESIDENCE B - Hollyhock House

Residences A and B display certain exterior effects which are not found at Hollyhock House. These include projecting horizontal roof elements, and the outlining of planes or cubic forms with thick and decorated molding---outlining the cube, in the more radical instance; in residence A this occurs o...
