    Absolutely stunning design work. Extraordinary in its integration into the landscape. Beautiful contrasting materials, interlocking volumes, elegant lighting effects, light and shadows, just spectacular work. New to me and very pleased to find it here today. Thanks for posting.

    I watch this periodically. I love his home so much. The homes architects create for themselves are often their best works because they are labors of love for their families.

    if i could have any house. I'd love Ray Kappe's house, just the spaces and that it sits in a forest of trees...with lots of light. The perfect multi-functional space, each with it's own section

    I remember watching this when I had creative blocks back in college a couple years ago. I miss all the dark early mornings I spent sitting in a cafe taking out my plates and listening to this video, so awesome.

    I didn't like how this film was composed. I feel like when you use another medium it should add something that is specific to that medium - in this case, the ability to capture 3-dimensional movement within a space. This was basically just a series of still photographs. Maybe that works for some people, but I really feel it was a missed opportunity :/

    • @carladamcarter

    This music is not fitting at all. With such a beautiful, peaceful building, this music becomes so distracting from both the lightness of the building and the voice of the architect. The next scene should be Oedipus' revelation of his sins with this kinda music going on. sheeeiiittt
