Psychology of Mudedekind continues to thrive with incongruity.
This house completes me.
Charles,
1) Thanks for posting a picture of one of the finest expressions of 20th century architecture ever built. Farnsworth House is to modernism what Bramante's 'Tempietto' was to the Baroque period.
2) Put down the goddamn bong.
are black people better at sports?
im always left with little explanation as to why this simple form can destroy my brain so heavily.
this property is perfect.
Makes me hate my moldy, sagging double-wide trailer in the swamp even more, if that's possible. Seriously. Like looking at a pretty girl, I could look at that house all day.
It's frustrating to look at this picture. It reminds me of how profoundly stupid most architects and consumers have been over the past 60 years.
I'm with Ryan. Pretty much function following form, to bullshit effect. Cmon, would you actually live in that thing?
Charles, here's one for you: What's the arete of a house?
Charles, Philip Johnson's "Glass House" predates this by two years.
thank god, all that was said was said in 1951. there's no need for charles to ever open his mouth again. ever. again.
It looks like a single wide with a really nice covered deck!
You read me wrong, Yo Mamma. I love that thing. It's that there isn't more of it that frustrates me, not the opposite.

johnson's "glass house" was directly inspired by the plans for the farnsworth house. it was his silver spoon, not ingenuity, which allowed him to complete his(literally. he built it for himself)version first.
I appreciate its clarity as an important aesthetic benchmark but somehow it doesn't produce the awe it does in so many others. I like it a lot, but that's it. Maybe it is how its clarity has been bastardized in countless bad beach houses.
Still it is great... one doesn't have to worship something to see the achievement.
Maybe Im just too comfortable with this sort of openess on the Illinois prarie landscape.
