- In the context of the exhibition The University Is Now on Air: Broadcasting Modern Architecture, the CCA presents twenty-four broadcasts from the course A305, History of Architecture and Design 1890-1939, by The Open University. To learn more about the project, visit www.cca.qc.ca/....
In television broadcast 5, Sandra Millikin discusses the Robie House built in the Hyde Park district of Chicago in 1909. The residence represents a culmination of the house type which Wright developed in the 1890s, in what has become known as the “Prairie” style. Millikin demonstrates Wright’s concern with materials and his masterly organization of space.
Written by Sandra Millikin, directed by Edward Hayward, produced the BBC/Open University, aired 5 April 1975 on BBC2.
What a pleasant documentary! No inane background music or crazy camera work. This is the way to do it.
Such a great video. Really captured the architecture and detail that FLW had put into the house.
You were a true master sir. We love your work and blessed with your projects and ideas.
At that time architects were like you who knew the value of nature and design with the flow of nature.
🙏🙏
He only lived in it for 14 months. Life holds no promises.
Love this house!
Beautiful to look at. Wouldn't want live there. Can you imagine how cold that living room floor would be in the winter with all those French doors and floor to ceiling glass. There are 16 large glass doors in the living room dining making it impossible to heat in the winter. A dream house where you freeze to death in the winter. No thanks.
Such a shame to be used as offices and not the architects original intention!
Beautiful!
It's now owned by the University of Chicago, which opens it to the public at certain times.
He is a true artist
I love indoor brick
Amazing
i love how extra his furniture is.
Ugly window unit AC hanging out the side there.
i have a literature review project due on this place due in 7 hours..... Can i do it?!
did u do it????
NOT real impressed with this one. I do like Wrights windows, but most of his work is SOOOOO STIFF!!!! And as a person ages, they ALWAYS want their bedroom on the FIRST FLOOR!!!!
But back then people weren’t deprived of potassium and iron so they didn’t age that much, back then an 80 year old would be like a 50 year old now, being deprived of potassium and iron is why we age and is the true cause of cancer.
108 years old now. Or so
Are you an architect
Yeah
The hostess sounds like a Peanuts character.😅
I love this house and watching this video, it’s so magical and I love how it’s super old, this was back when Chicago was good, corrupt cops were rare, no 5G cancer towers, fewer 4G cell towers, this was pre-2008 so no smart meters, and no one wearing unholy Self-Suffocation Devices, the lady narrating this has a beautiful accent and soft voice
Horribly boring presentation of this FLW house.
I loved watching this video
