I'm just enamored with a place where you can turn the attic into living space.

I hate small rooms. It's probably because I don't have kids, but my ideal residence would be one of those rehabbed industrial buildings where the bedroom is sequestered by a curtain. Something where you can play basketball in the living room, and can watch the same huge TV from anywhere in the residence.

Fallng Water? Guggenheim? I probably would have said "The Empire State Building" was Wright's most famous design.

I would agree.






Except for the fact that Wright wasn't the designer.

I stand corrected. So much of the interior furnishings of that building were of the style he popularized... I just kind of fell into a trap there, thinking that was one of his.

FLW was a pompous, form over function, tool. Most of his designs may be nice to look at but the details were often sjetchy, and the functionality and construction and engineering were usually substandard.

Fallinwater has had to be renovated several times to be kept in poresentable condition. It has been shored up numerous times as it was improperly designed and built and kept slidfing down the hillside.

He built his buildings for himself, not his client. He built the Guggenheim without a single striaght, flat wall. It's an ART MUSEUM. Have you tried hanging a painting on a curved wall?

His flashing and roofing details were notriously bad, leading to most of his designs being leaky sieves.

He built impracticality and discomfort into nealry everything.

He was a hack who is heralded by the knowledgeless masses and loathed by much of his peers and most design professionals.
