Fallingwater is a little more multi-colored than this, but both models are really impressive. Hope to be stacked with cash by the time they get released here.

Oh, and because of this post, I remembered that I had been remiss in not getting my Lego Space Needle yet. Thanks for the reminder, it has now been ordered.

Adam Reed Tucker’s site has the Guggenheim at $45 $10 shipping. Hopefully these show up in the Brand Retail stores…

I’m so please that LEGO has created these sets. I always thought the Star Wars Lego sets were closest to my heart, but as the son of a man who studied at Taliesin and worked on the Guggenheim, I have a new favorite. Now I’m hoping for a Taj Mahal scale Wright set.

Oooh, these look nice. I doubt fallingwater will be under $30.00, but it looks like a great parts pack. And the museum looks like it has lots of cool parts…

Very cool looking.

Did my thesis on Wright in college. Almost went to Taliesin, but was going on GI bill and they didn’t recognize it as an accredited college.

Falling Water is a huge favorite of mine, however he built it horribly bad to make it look good and he didn’t care. I loved him, his life was insane. One of his wives were killed when the chef went crazy.

Both look great, but that Fallingwater is amazing. I’ve been a big fan of Wright’s work for some time now, and taking a tour of some his Oak Park homes a few weeks back, I kept remarking how his style would translate beautifully into MOCs given their design. Looks like I was right!

If we’re talking Wright, I’ve love to see the Robie House and/or Taliesin West next
