I'm sorry I will miss the new exhibit. Another book in the offing, perhaps ? That would be a treat.

I am sorry, no. I've had feelers, but I am passing. The Penwern book took five + years. Maybe some day, but not now.

The Big Room at Johnson Wax is impressive, obviously, but my favorite corner of the building, since it was first published in HB decades ago, has always been the office with the extraordinary domed skylight ... a room no one gets to see on tours. It is the same design FLW wanted to use at Guggenheim, but it was deemed too insubstantial for its size. The replacement is fine, but imagine Johnson at Guggenheim!
