Thanks GOOGLE!

Troy mentioned the other day that I might need to consult a structural engineer to build my clerestory windows. This morning I opened Google to search for help. This is today's photo!



Google is featuring Ludwig Mies Van Derh Rohe to celebrate the 126th anniversary of his birth. The Washington Post has an article about "Mies" also.

While searching I found this architectural design photo of his Farnsworth house.





Did you know that the Brinca Dada Emerson Dollhouse was inspired by Mies designs?



Even LEGO recreated one of his houses!:D



Not only am I inspired, I am now more informed!

This image from Treehugger.com will help me construct my windows!



Hope you enjoy celebrating the wonderful designs of this great modern architect. Happy Birthday Mr. Mies!
