Homes are universal – we all need a safe place to rest our head and be away from the world. But just as people are diverse, homes are too. And some of those people capture our imagination. For architects and designers homes are often seen as the Essential Building: manifesting the most elemental, fundamental aspects of structure and building.
But our culture often focuses on those we find fascinating: with Starchitects those persona find embodiment in their homes, but more, the artist, the rich, the idiosyncratic all all homes and the cultural focus on them as celebrities is transferred directly to their homes. Since Fallingwater 50 years ago “Tourist Destination” architecture has included homes. In Connecticut we have Philip Johnson’s Glass House and Mark Twain’s own home in Hartford.
Why do these homes embody our hopes beyond their structures and have cultural and personal importance to so many? Why do we want to go to see these homes? Why are they worth so much attention – what does that focus reveal about what our homes mean to us?
Great guests associated with these terrific places join us!
