Very nice! When I was 16, my boss had a round house with much the same mid-century style, but on a somewhat smaller scale. I was in that same house just last year and it had great potential for remodeling... in other words it's falling apart! |

That's one slick piece of work. Who's the architect, I didn't see it in the article. It kinda looked like Bruce Goff on valium. |

Well, how about "Goff-plus" or "Goff and Friends"? Though I have never seen the documents indicating architect of record, but have only seen it repeated through popular legend that it is indeed a Goff design. However, some of the more, shall we say, authoritative voices in Dallas architecture have told me that the original owner was indeed a Goff enthusiast, but that the final product was influenced by Goff's designs and completed by students/associates of Goff. In any case, a totally groovy pad with the all-important tiki bar - and don't forget the indoor pool nearby... GK |
