Glass House Opens To Public
This article on the Apple web site opens perfectly...
"In the professional design community, people have been waiting their entire careers for access to this site."
It's true. Philip Johnson's Glass House is probably one of the best examples of Modernist architecture and it reminds me much of my old neighborhood designed for the most part by Mies Van Der Rohe, which is another true gem of the modernist movement.
But beyond the beautiful vistas and clean lines, there is another part of the article that got me thinking...
No Clutter
Most importantly, the Visitor Center itself had to reflect Johnson’s aesthetic. “We knew we didn’t want it to be your typical historic house, cluttered with signage and displays,” says Dunn. “We saw it doing something different — even reshaping the way historic house museums are viewed.”
So if you clear your clutter - mental and/or physical - don't you think you can reshape how you are viewed?
