falling waterI think that I have mentioned here before that we might be moving soon and we aren’t not sure as of yet if it will be to an apartment Cry or to another house. On thing is for sure though, we are done with rentals, and what ever it is it will be our very own. For me this means that  I am fantasising about what will be perfect for us, and what will be possible, and how, If we do have an actual garden, I will be able to get it to a higher level of perfection than the house - since land, water sun and plants are in abundance (except for the water.)

Anyway, I ran into a beautiful post about Frank Lloyd Wrights most perfect Falling Water which as far as I am concerned is both the perfect house and the perfect garden, mostly because he didn’t think of the house and the surroundings as different entities and totally incorporated them, bringing the building out and the plants in.

Any way, I was reading a post about this house in the Art of Gardening, and I fell totally in love with it.

There are some gorgeous interior and exterior shots that demonstrate the inside out side way of thinking,

I know that that is a lot to aim for, but I can keep it in mind as perfection - can’t I?

    Thanks for the shout out! I hope you can find a house as nice as Fallingwater, but don’t pin to many hopes on that. It is extraordinary. It is the product of money, ego and brilliance. And not many of us have all three.
