This weekend my lovely cohort is moving here — Frank Lloyd Wright’s Arthur B. Heurtley house. Andrew and I have toured Falling Water and his House and Studio in Oak Park, but I could have never imagined being able to spend the night and throw parties in one. I studied a lot of architecture in school and was always drawn to van der Rohe’s simplicity. And, while I am not one for ornate decoration, Wright really changed the game for me. It is all very subtle, nature inspired wood cuts, and who doesn’t love a good wood cut? I also love the fact that Wright designed every detail. Furniture fit for his houses, every corner, every inch. So self-aggrandized that nothing could ever be moved or changed.
Next weekend, I am sleeping over and we are jetsetting in the morning to the Kane County Flea Market.
