Awhile back, there was a discussion going on over at Six LDS Writers and a Frog about architecture. Why that is going on on a writer’s blog by a permablogger there who makes no connection to literature that I can see (I kid because I love), I do not know.
But I enjoyed his post and the discussion, and it sent me looking for my growing fascination with mid-century modern and, in particular, Mies van der Rohe. Farnsworth House is one of his more famous residential works.
