When I watch this I am reminded of how life was before the insanity of todays times. Architecture is what helps brings pleasure to people's existence in all its various forms.
My former employer sold a Wright chair for $18,000. It was around 1984. The Wright chair sat in the office for at least 10 years and was pushed around to every corner.
Frank Lloyd Wright was a strikingly handsome man throughout his life. He had a classy look and just had to be a most interesting man to converse with. Confident rather than arrogant, it is a personal trait we each would benefit from fostering. He is Modern Architecture and Design and will be known always, thousands and thousands of years to come, he will hold his due place in History.
You are correct,Beth Bartlett,on everything you said.I visited one of his homes & he was bigger than life because his presence was everywhere.His genius as an architect & bigger-than-life persona can't be argued
the romans used under floor heating. they got it from the Phoenicians, so on & so on. F.L.W. was an innovator, a true renaissance man. he developed &/or improved a great many things. radiant floor heating was not one of them
As a student at Purdue (BA Communications), I passed by here every day as I went to Purdue. Always wanted to see the interior, and thanks to this, I can. Thank you. Also, I gave a speech on Frank Lloyd Wright to the much younger students and showed pictures of Wright's designs and when I told them the designs were in the 20s and 30s, they were amazed.
The good Doctor and his wife were such excellent stewards of this FLW Masterpiece. I do hope that his Grandchildren found the formula to his secrete Copper instant patina spray and have made $Millions!
I have been designing houses for almost 50 years. My office is in central NJ and 90% are 2 story colonial’s. Almost every client brings a plan and elevation from a plan book that they picked up at the local food store.
Drop the "Lincoln," please: despite its repeated appearance as Wright's supposed middle name, it has no basis in fact. It seems to have been the invention of Brendan Gill, in "Many Masks," a work which has few friends today in the world of legitimate Wright scholarship.
As much as I appreciate this production... Dr. Christian is trying to sound like a genius here. It's baking soda (and vinegar if you wish) people. It's been known for a loooooong time before Dr Christian was ever born. Yeah.... secret formula.....
Whoever did the sound on this film had the volume so loud couldn't hear the narrator-the overly loud, blasting music ruined the video altogether, drowned the film out

What a wonderful life experience the Dr & his wife had--to hear about actual interactions with FLW in the design of this amazing house.

Strikingly handsome?

A very touching tribute to both architect and client who worked together to create a marvelous work of art.
Wonderful life, love what you all have accomplished, thanks for sharing the beauty of your gifts!❤
Most gracious people thank you😘
*What a great story, family journey, and priceless experiences.*

I’ve been to Samara, it’s gorgeous!
Thank you Dr. Christian.

Fabulous.
played Mr. Christian (a friendly English version of "well - played" ..... if you don't say this in the USA)
The curator looks like a movie star. A female Jim Nabors.

Fascinating.
Myth arises around great heroes.
I'd think of name changes too, if my name was Gill.
Or name my daughter Fish.

Huh?
Please shut the dreary music off!
Did Dr. Christian take his secret copper greening formula to the grave? RIP Dr. Christian
You just pee on it.
Seriously.
