This week’s #WomensHistoryWednesday, we’re spotlighting Dr. Farnsworth’s role in the creation of @edithfarnsworthhouse. Our very own Scott Mehaffey and Nora Wendl on the Expedition Works podcast unravel the lore and reality around Dr. Farnsworth: her relationship with Mies, the house, and Modernism in general.

“Because of the lawsuit, she was relegated to the footnotes of history as the crazy spurned ex-lover, who had never appreciated the house. And of course, that was just a mischaracterization. We’ve conducted a lot of research in recent years and learned what a fascinating person she was, that she was integral to the design of the house until the lawsuit. She really hasn’t been given due credit. She was really Mies’ only client, a patron, really, at a point when he had no private commissions.”

L'art du détail / Architecte Le Corbusier / Photographe Laszlo Horvath

En 42 photographies présentées à la Maison La Roche, Laszlo Horvath porte un regard sur cinq œuvres de Le Corbusier : la Maison La Roche, la Villa Savoye, la chapelle Notre-Dame-du-Haut, le couvent Sainte-Marie de la Tourette et l’ensemble de Firminy. Ses clichés mettent en valeur la matérialité de l’architecture et les variations qu’opèrent la lumière sur l’œuvre de Le Corbusier.

Our buildings are born from a deep appreciation of colonial craftsmanship and the enduring style of early New England. For 50 years the time-honored techniques of handcrafting have been practiced in our workshops and today we’re prouder than ever to keep those traditions alive for future generations to come.
