I wish we could have seen more of the Grace House. It is absolutely stunning !!

[@buzzkincaid5521]

This is a nice collection of timeless , understated, mid century architecture.

God mid-century modern is so gorgeous, architecture as art! So refreshing from all the suburban aesthetic burn out

[@thornbird6768]

My absolute favourite of all architecture 👍🏻

[@bertroost1675]

That room at 1:40! Amazing!

[@veroneek3176]

I'm so in love with these homes. It's a dream of mine to own one! I'd snap up a Frank Lloyd Wright if I won the lottery...

[@bertroost1675]

There are two in Marion, Indiana.

It would have been nice to actually tour the houses. Teaser video.

Just as with other kinds of art -- painting, sculpture -- the name of the architect is of prime importance; it allows the viewer or visitor to find other work by the same person, and shows respect for the accomplishment. Of the three houses in this video, only the last one is identified by the name of its architect, Robert Smith. And, in which state do we find West Lafayette ? Purdue is mentioned, so we can guess that we're in Indiana. Locals wouldn't need to be told -- but KZbin is an international resource. Don't miss the second part of this tour: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hH_QfoRpp5mVjbM

a elderly couple ten years ago one or both of them are probably dead by now. That was the shortest tour of a house I have ever seen.

[@KurtLahrman]

Thanks! It was a fun project.

[@lhbear]

next time, less talk, more house, PLEASE!!

[@bethbartlett5692]

Its an Architecture Ed Video on MidCentury Design...

[@noaheinstein2369]

Beth Bartlett, and that’s why we need interior/exterior relationships, interior views, floor plans, etc. imagine sitting outside an FLW house and never leaving the perspective you see presented here- 2 people seated on the front lawn who, along with the camera crew, never leave their chairs.

[@JamesBrittonIRL]

Great camera work. What equipment did you use?

[@chrisk8187]

NOT great camera work! We literally did not see the homes.

[@bertroost1675]

That shine on his head at 6:25 🤣

[@KurtLahrman]

Thanks. JVC HDV and HDSLR.

[@chrisk8187]

Kurt, I'll come and do it for FREE!

[@KurtLahrman]

Does your mother even like you? I'm guessing no one else does.

[@robertpaulsin6109]

I cannot stand the term 'mid century modern'. Sounds so pseudo intellectual. Cringe.

[@sharksport01]

The amateurs love it. Also ICONIC and EPIC.
