Beloved architect, Frank Lloyd Wright, is finally the subject of a biopic film, to be directed by “Driving Miss Daisy’s” Bruce Beresford.

This project is located on a narrow and sloping plot, on the edge of a village. The way the house had to be laid out wasn’t easy since the regulations and neighborhood limits were restricting. To avoid a very long and narrow house, the project is split in three parts, on semi levels using the natural slope. ]]> Sun, 20 May 2012 07:30:01 CDT admin Architecture 0 http://findboom.com/Architecture/airstream-house-by-tank-architects/ http://findboom.com/Furniture/key-of-rock/

The Yukon Suspension Bridge is situated on the historic South Klondike highway which links the cities of Whitehorse and Skagway and follows the historic Klondike Gold Rush trail of the late 1800’s. The Interpretive Centre is located near the summit of White Pass on the spectacular Tutshi Canyon and tells the story of the prospector’s journey over the historic Chilkoot Pass to Lake Bennett and Dawson City. The centre also gives insight into the area’s natural history, explaining the local landforms and indigenous plant and animal life. The interpretive centre is a seasonal operation with the major customers coming from the Alaskan cruise ships landing at Skagway during the summer months ]]> Sun, 20 May 2012 03:30:02 CDT admin Architecture 0 http://findboom.com/Architecture/the-yukon-suspension-bridge-by-scott-m-kemp-architect/ http://findboom.com/Furniture/definition-of-time/
