You know the original ownde sued the architect because of the appaling leaking. The case was abandoned because of the outbreak of war

True.  I guess I like the poetics more than the practicality of the thing, but if Karl Lagerfeld can live in an homage to Villa Savoye…

Its a interesting looking house, but it also looks so... utilitarian...

Fallingwater was certainly better thought out in practical ways than Villa Savoye, but I just prefert white to all that brown.  Something that stands out from the surroundings rather than blending in so organically.
