Take Me Home...


Jacqueline here again...

Both designed by Frank Lloyd Wright
In my last two years of college my ArtHistory degree led me to a fondness for architecture. My favorite? Frank Lloyd Wright's "FallingWater"...by a mile. Architecture Professor William Allin Storrer describes Fallingwater as "the best-known private home for someone not of royal blood in the history of the world." I am not a princess...I have zero royal blood...when do I move in? For all architects and designers focused on inside/outside relationships...this house is your dream. "HollyHock House" is just fabulous due to the logic and ingenuity of Wright, not to mention the uber local in the Hollywood Hills...I die!
