Dream House

The title of this post might be misleading.  Our current, amazingly lovely house is my dream house.  It's my dream house for a lot of reasons, but one is definitely because it's Mid-Century Modern. I've had a longterm fascination with the period and have always wanted the opportunity to update a true MCM gem.  Ours is far from a time trap but there's still lots of opportunity to modernize.  It got me thinking though - where did this fascination come from?  And then I remembered that day in Intro to Art History class where I first learned...

... of The Farnsworth House.  If I ever get the chance to build my own house, it would have to be built in the spirit of Mies van der Rohe and this amazing house.

I would also have to plant a lot of mature trees.
