I completed the highly-detailed LEGO® model, co-developed and designed by architect Adam Reed Tucker, Fallingwater® by master architect Frank Lloyd Wright. The accompanying booklet included details on design, theory and history. This experience allowed this blogger the opportunity to peak into the minds of two artisans that have molded several industries and passions into one seamless adventure. Brick after brick, snap after snap, the interlocking pieces opened my imagination to new ways of displaying complex concepts in a more simple and elegant manner. Towering trees represented by green blocks and flowing streams denoted by sharply angled clear blocks. Intricate forms illustrated by simple gestures. This concept and the exercise of just permitting myself to be in the moment of building, gave way to thinking how pixels can become more organic. How fusing lines on a digital canvas can be more than just a method of conveying information but giving rise to striking a passionate cord in the heart of the viewer. After assembling the replica of the real-world architectural landmark, I felt the urgency to reach for my sketchbook and "play" for an hour. I also booked my summer vacation. That's right, this designer is going to see the Masterpiece for himself in Mill Run, Pennsylvania. I just had an amazing experience!
