The image of the Rhododendron Chapel is intriguing; I guess the new Skyline Ink videos are not yet available online . . .

Darwin Martin died penniless in 1935, not long after Wright had met another famously wealthy client. Wright is said to have owed Martin seventy thousand dollars, never repaid. The Martin and Kaufmann houses might represent the peaks of Wright's career in their respective eras ?

I wish one of the Point View Residences had been built. They were masterful.

We are living in a time when, at last, digital (re)creations of unbuilt or lost Wright structures are being accomplished successfully. It is interesting, of course, to see the different styles of modeling and animation coming from various individuals and companies around the globe.
