New Frank Lloyd Wright

I have admired this design for a long time.. super strong horizontals, reminds me of Unity Temple a little...the renderings were looking up from the bottom of a cliff...very japaneese...this design was never excuted ...until 2 years ago when some local Buffalo people paid for the "Wright" to build it.


Nicely executed...door finishes are failing already.


I still can't figure out how he can get the steel to cantilever that far and hold the concrete
panels...dead load way above 50lbs/sf...?
