I am a sculptor, and also went to Cornell for architecture, and I have such an appreciation for the mix of natural elements and design. I build a home myself in the woods of New Hampshire to be closer to nature. You have a fantastic blog, thank you for sharing!

The house, garden and tour guide were all fantastic.<br /><br />Of course Fallingwater was integrally tied into its exact geographic location. Wright literally looked for his inspiration in nature, leading to both the layering in the house’s design AND the intentional non-disturbance of natural elements, whether they irritated the householders or not. <br /><br />So I agree that Fallingwater was not hugely popular as a role model for future homes, and I am suggesting it was because this house may have been a difficult model for ordinary humans to live in. I would love to know what the Kaufmanns thought about living there.Helshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02849907428208235392noreply@blogger.com
