a kid and a grown up at the same time

before i decided to study civil engineering i thought about pursuing architecture. buildings absolutely fascinate me. (europe killed me, especially with the buildings that were about twice as old as AMERICA). each one so different and unique and beautiful yet so functional. then i realized my lack of artistic skills and pursued the more mathematical, black and white side of the process. but i still admire architecture immensely. which is why i totally geeked out when i saw these:


Lego brand "Architecture" sets featuring a couple of renowned architect Frank Lloyd Wright's designs.

The first is "Falling Water" which is located in Pennsylvania. It's open to the public and it has been on my must-see list for a while. I still remember my Papa giving me a calendar of Frank Lloyd Wright designs when I was about 12...which reminds me, I should find that.

The second is the Guggenheim Museum located in Manhattan, New York. I think that puts me at about reason #394875 to visit New York now. I WILL get there some day.
