    Good stuff. Lloyd Wrights stuff is legendary.

    Someone who followed after him is John Lautner. He made some pretty epic stuff

    3 of my favorites

    Elrod House featured in James Bond Diamonds are Forever


    Goldstein House



    Arango House Acapulco







    I suggest watching "Infinite Space" which is documentary of Lautner's work. It just came out and features some amazing up close views of the homes. Pictures do these places no justice at all

    Big Wright fan.
    I've been to the Falling Water house and Taliesin West in AZ.

    No prob.

    Also can't forget about one of Lautner's most famous places

    dubbed the "Chemosphere"



    I think this was in the movie HEAT


    Also check out Ray Kappe







    Last house was featured in Californication season 1

    Yay, nice work guys. Glad to see it's not just me that's an archi-nerd!

    Lautner's stuff is great. I went to find the Chemosphere last time I was in LA!

    I've got to get myself to Brazil at some point and see some Niemeyer...

    Taliesin west was impressive when I took the opportunity to walk through a couple yrs ago. Building some of my sketches from over the yrs is definitely a goal of mine when I'm ready to find a nice piece of land with a view and something like stelvio pass in my backyard...
