    Having the architect talk about the house is so much more superior than letting a realestate agent talk about a house! Not only is this educational but it allows me to appreciate the thought, artistry and beauty behind such architecture! Architects speak in a much more sophisticated and genteel way than realestate agents (except Linda May)! More of these kind of content please! Thank you!

      To be honest, the most "artistic" part of the house is NATURE. Not the part human-made. The scenery of the lake and the forest surrounding the house is what makes the place amazing. The architect only needed to include glasses everywhere so you could see nature. Nature creations will always surpass human creations. The most beautiful natural landscapes such as forests and lakes will always be more magnificent than buildings and cities.

    This might be one of the rare cases when the architect truly gives justice to his art with storytelling. Such a beautiful perspective we all got the pleasure to listen to. Wrapped up the music, videography, and of course the house. What a masterpiece in every way.

    I think this is one my favourite houses I've seen. The placement next to the sounds of the waterfall the forest, the views, how private it is! I'm in love

    Every single thing is perfection - the setting, the structure, the immediate landscaping. Stunning. I especially enjoyed experiencing it through the eyes and storytelling of the architect.

    One of the most stunning homes I’ve ever seen. I grew up in a small town in western New York that has quarries. The intellect and grace behind the design is stunning. I have two questions. #1. How deep is the quarry? #2. How long before the kids become teenagers and jump off the roof into the quarry with their friends!!! 😎 (I’m not saying we did this as kids in the local quarries…)

    This house is undeniably stunning, and yet... something about it feels very unsettling. The dark dark dark water makes me want to cry or scream.

    Great video and great architect. There is art in describing art. But there is mastery in explaining and justifying it. Puts this building to words so wonderfully.

    Everything he said is true amongst so many of the visionaries that are creators not just when designing every detail of a living house but the description and the invite to the senses are all around within miles of fences . Truly amongst all the great things that are involved when constructing the best of the best , golf course architecture is the ultimate test.

    The house and location are interesting. But the sight of the quarry filled with water makes me freeze up. Nothing cozy or calming about this place for me. Somewhat eerie and haunting about this place. Might be just me.

      I can see what you are saying. I appreciate the greatness of the project, but I am undecided about the location. We have friends with a house along a river. The back deck overhangs the water's edge several feet below. They had special netting installed when their children were young as a safety measure. Young kids and the quarry full of water would make me uneasy.
