Pretty strong commentary about an architect who clearly created many beautiful and lasting works - not sure where the vitriol is coming from. His houses are absolutely artworks, and should be treated as such, despite their maintenance woes. Have you ever been to Falling Water? It's had huge problems -- recently mostly remedied -- but is an inspiring and magical creation.
- GalacticDomin8r 8y agoSomething about "lasting" and "maintenance woes" doesn't quite belong. Op did acknowledge the artistic value, so not sure why your response is simply an appeal to artistic value.
- p1necone 8y agoI'd agree with you if he was just creating artworks meant to be observed from the outside, but he wasn't. He was designing buildings that were also intended to be lived in or used for some functional purpose by people.
