I have a deep admiration for Frank Lloyd-Wright's philosophy. This house took my breath away, it blends in with the nature surrounding it so seamlessly. This video was such a soothing watch.
When you look at the distant shots of the house, looking across the water, you can see that Wright perfectly matched the color of the concrete blocks to the color of the surrounding boulders, which is one of the primary mechanisms for integrating the house to the land, to give you the feeling that the house is growing up out of the ground.
I love how time hasn't changed Wright's original idea of coexistence with nature but rather it has made this connection stronger by helping the building "settle in" the surrounding environment and become one with it.
@@SpockvsMcCoy I think I get it, an artist like Mr. Wright might’ve leaned towards his artistic disposition, sometimes a little too much, when he should’ve been listening to his engineering mind…What a problem to have, though.
An architecture that impacts the natural setting of the place is like a falling leaf in an uninterrupted ground but at the same time has a lot of impact on how humans live alongside the environment. I really admire Wright's philosophy to his architecture.
Riveting and spiritually soothing and I finally understand the “why” of small bedrooms and narrow hallways opening into large, open living spaces. It’s breathtaking how the land and water perfectly frame this exquisite house…just wow.
This is so much more than a house, it would be a shame to not think more of it as a repository of feelings in nature, immersive and alive. Not all such places visually thrive in winter, this embraces it and because of the materials allows it, encourages it to invite you in. Cool concrete when it is hot, warm Philippine mahogany when it is cold, creating multiple environments to inhabit. Thank you so much, AD for producing this with such respect and awe.
It's curious how structural design elements were brought up so often when this is one of Wright's biggest weaknesses and a leading reason why so many of his building were demolished or in need of massive repair. Granted by this point in time much of the engineering aspect was likely done by other people within his agency after learning his earlier mistakes. At this point in time in the US architecture and engineering were largely learned at a company and not a university. University education in engineering was largely a product of the space race. Still as a designer there are few that compare to the beauty of many of his designs. Prairie School and American Arts and Crafts design is in my opinion some of the premier architectural design ever.
Despite different space needs, including the height of the rooms, the whole thing enchanted me, and the story about this "place to live"/"place in life" is very beautiful and valuable. So calming, beautiful, and holistic.
I'm reading Ayn Rand's Fountain head, who her main character is based off of Frank Lloyd Wright. I now have a deeper appreciation for the book along with quintessential architect. ❤
This reminds me of Japanese garden very much. I posted videos in my channel about it. The chain that rain is falling along it can be seen in temples in Japan very often. It is incredible design and felt the respect of the nature.
For a very long time, I have admired the architecture of FLW, with Falling Water being my favorite. This house just became my new favorite. I love everything about it. Thanks for sharing!!!
Whatever is going on in your life, that may be troubling, causing you sadness or sorrow. Watch this. The gentle pace, music, and narration, all wrapped around, the sheer beauty of the building and its setting, will just, if even for a short time, melt troubles away.....
Thank you AD. My heart was racing as Mr. Graff toured us through the property and explained Wright’s signature elements. This video is a treasure and a wonderful homage to FLW.
I will probably never live in such a beautiful place. But it fills my hearth with joy, knowing it exists. :) I hope that - with new technologies such as 3D house printing emerging - in the future most houses will be similar in nature (no pun intended) as the ones designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. As many people as possible should be able to live in such homes. :)
Have you guys done Florida Southern College? I went to school there and I always appreciated how the newer buildings tried their best to match Frankie's vision
I never knew of Tirranna. I love Falling Waters but it seems more fantasy... difficult to live in. Tirranna looks like so comfortable... single panned glass aside ;)
Ha, I thought he said "Toronto" and I didn't know Wright had a structure named Toronto. Locally many people here pronounce the city name exactly like this. Spelled Toronno or Toronna
Frank Lloyd Wright is Heaven on Earth! I am a retired architect living in a RAM Promaster City Van. I feel the 50 sq. ft. for my van interior has some of the charm of Wright's design in my van interior and it's relation to nature.
Oh, I'm so loving these videos of FLW's masterpieces. Thank you! Thinking about those narrow hallways - they play also on the experience FLW liked to create. The sense of taking a journey through compressed spaces to open light filled spaces, reconnecting with the outside again. Whereas the hallways surrounding the courtyard allow us to feel almost connected to that outside space while still sheltered within. And the low chairs allow for a different view of the outside than you have sitting on a bed or standing.
The beauty and peace! Seeing the pond makes me think of the phrase, as above, so below. You see the obscured image in the pond only to lift your gaze to the perfected structure above.
Terrific and informative video. Simple and straightforward analysis of the ideas behind this design. Can you please do more videos with this narrator and in this visual style on other FLW's houses.
The most beautiful house I have ever seen. It is art! I want to see a video of each season of the year to see how the house changes with the environment.
I hope that someone who appreciates gardening can own this house next! Seeing all of these empty planters just makes me wonder if this is what he wanted his legacy to be. Expensive houses without the touches of love he intended
A dateless design philosophy, a building that works with nature, environment, standing the test of time. A design approach that will always be relevant, no matter what’s in and out of fashion.
You see a lot of bare concrete interior design, minimalism, and organic architecture blending with nature today. FLW was way ahead of his time for sure ❤
Take careful notice that there's not much clutter , we all face the plague Battle of dust collectors , mixing art with easy maintenance is truly a blessing
AD doing a favor to humanity by covering these Frank Lloyd Wright gems, hopefully there's more of these videos to come
I like how warm that house feels, a nap in there during the rain must be something else.
Warm? It’s dark and cold. All Wrights houses are.
@@deleteddata6671 Even one of the most renowned architects to ever grace the earth can't please everybody.
It's single glazed with no drapes.
It looks freezing. If a house can't keep you warm it has failed its primary function
@@outofthefoxootf979 the most renowned; hath “graced the earth” bestowing warmth on urbanites and troglodytes alike 🤩
@@outofthefoxootf979 and its specially difficult to please pretentious armchair critics like the one above
Would love a video like this for each one of Frank Lloyd Wright’s houses!!
Me too!😁
agreed!
Same! This house is amazing!
Yes, please!!!!! 😊🌺🐞
We live near a couple they’re so cool !
I have a deep admiration for Frank Lloyd-Wright's philosophy. This house took my breath away, it blends in with the nature surrounding it so seamlessly. This video was such a soothing watch.
Thank you for your shared thoughts. I found this video so calming this morning of an amazing space .. one winders what it must have been living there

this guy needs to be complimented too, his knowledge and way with words is impressive and you can tell he really appreciates what hes seeing
I’m pretty sure he’s making up words…
Can we have LESS celebrity OpenDoors episodes, and MORE of this?
Yes please!
Absolutely. Spot on, exactly what I thought.
Please! ☺️
Yes please ❤
How about a compromise 3 decent design history commissions for each slightly nauseating celebrity NYC or SoCal property?
I love how time hasn't changed Wright's original idea of coexistence with nature but rather it has made this connection stronger by helping the building "settle in" the surrounding environment and become one with it.
One of the most beautiful houses I've ever seen. Perfectly organic and inviting.
What a fantastic narration of this property.Just a wonderful,special property.Thank you very much !
WOW! I've been a fan of Wright for decades and never knew about this house. It's beautiful beyond words. OMG!
Even compared to his other designs, this place is quite the masterpiece.
His architecture was ahead of its time and very well-made. ❤
Wright used high quality materials... however some of his houses and buildings have leaky roofs and structural problems (cantilevered designs).

Usually i prefer large English country houses, but this is so peaceful and serene. I love everything about it.

Despite different space needs, including the height of the rooms, the whole thing enchanted me, and the story about this "place to live"/"place in life" is very beautiful and valuable. So calming, beautiful, and holistic.
That long passageway with the glass panels reminds me of the house in "Ozarks". Love that house
To be surrounded by nature is to be surrounded by peace.
Thank you for creating this very "Zen" video - beautiful, intentional, quiet, enlightening. Will definitely watch more than once!

This house deserves to be lived in and enjoyed.

Fallingwater.
I like the Bloomberg keyboard on the desk. Gives away the owners profession
Thank you for sharing this awe inspiring structure. I am a huge fan of FLW and this is just a feast for the eyes.
Beauty, comfort, appreciation for the materials and for natural landscape elements. Perfection.
Currently for sale in New Canaan (CT) for $7 million... has been on the market about 8-months but appears to be pending sale.

I’m so in awe of this. Such peace and serenity.

That incredible structure is like a beautiful sonnet by the way it tells a story.
That greenhouse area is beautiful!
Such an interesting piece, beautifully narrated.
Beautiful place. The landscape architecture is exquisite as well.
Wonderfully narrated and educational video of a masterpiece.....I have never heard of!!
Beautiful video, insightful narrative, thoroughly informative-- and a FLW house with which I was completely unfamiliar. Bravi, tutti!
I love how skylights and both the transom and clerestory windows break up the mass of this house.
Mr. Graff does a fine job of describing the exquisitely indescribable.

Amazing house and Stuart Graff gave the best tour ever!
Beautifully presented! Poetic and reverent just like the house itself 🍂
Wow, this design makes me want to redecorate my whole living space! Great job!
This house makes me emotional for some reason
Thank you AD for show-casing this amazing creation. Well done!
The beauty and peace! Seeing the pond makes me think of the phrase, as above, so below. You see the obscured image in the pond only to lift your gaze to the perfected structure above.
Simply astonishing.
The filming itself is so soothing…a sensory experience ❤❤❤ Beautiful
Beautiful! I agree why isn't modern architecture one with nature?
Terrific and informative video. Simple and straightforward analysis of the ideas behind this design. Can you please do more videos with this narrator and in this visual style on other FLW's houses.
I love all of the nature that you see both in and out! Stunning!
The most beautiful house I have ever seen. It is art! I want to see a video of each season of the year to see how the house changes with the environment.
Beautiful video and stunning architecture. Thank you for allowing us into this amazing space.
Oh. Never mind. Turns out what I needed was a Frank piece. Oh great.
I hope that someone who appreciates gardening can own this house next! Seeing all of these empty planters just makes me wonder if this is what he wanted his legacy to be. Expensive houses without the touches of love he intended
This is an amazing property thank you for presenting it so effortlessly.
Nice job with this, AD. Beautifully done feature.
I have gone to like 3 of his houses! It is though cramped when you go inside.
I have been inside over 30. I don't think you know what you're talking about.
Absolutely Stunning
Beautiful. I wouldn't want to live there bc I don't want to ruin such a piece of art.
Lovely commentary articulating so much of what I think about how one might live. Thanks.
A dateless design philosophy, a building that works with nature, environment, standing the test of time. A design approach that will always be relevant, no matter what’s in and out of fashion.
Exquisite! Love his design here.. Enjoyed every second of this.. Great tour. Well done 👏👏
Genius. Beautifully filmed and presented. Thank you.
Absolutely beautiful and serene! Just watching this video stirred many emotions.
Suggestion. Can you create a Frank Lloyd Wright Playlist? 😊
truly inspiring to see nature and architecture merge
I feel such peace and pleasure watching this video
You see a lot of bare concrete interior design, minimalism, and organic architecture blending with nature today. FLW was way ahead of his time for sure ❤
This is a beautiful building , and as i watched the film the haunting sound of the music and water just made my eyes glaze over . so soothing .
LOVE F.L.W. Architecture ! The Usonian homes are my Favorites.
Amazing, i'm in complete awe. Love FLW so much
The curve of the windows is beautifully reminiscent of Earthship designs.
Feel fortunate to have Fallingwater and Chalk Hill close by, but I think this is probably now is my favorite.
Take careful notice that there's not much clutter , we all face the plague Battle of dust collectors , mixing art with easy maintenance is truly a blessing
Frank Lloyd Wright ❤️🔥
I believe that the rate of mental ill ness would decrease of s the people had a residence like this
In a perfect world…
The problem is people will develop mental diseases in the act of working to raise money to build this property
Frank Lloyd Wright's genius shines through in every detail 🏡✨
I think that FL Wright really shines given a rural natural setting. Tirranna fits that bill.
I absolutely love spaces like this.
A friend of mine lived in one of Wright’s houses in Kenilworth, Illinois. I always wondered what those chains were for, now I know
I love this property! “There’s a reason for that “.
it looks even more amazing when it's covered in snow.
I just love this house.
Thank you.
As we are of earth so are wrights creations. His homes evoke a sense of oneness with all of the elements.
I mean...just beautiful and so inspirational, thankyou x
I was a huge fan of FLW as an architect drafting student in 1984. He is an icon😊
