Wonderful narrative.

I read the book about his life and architecture a few years ago and so glad you posted this video. He does deserve more recognition. I love the simplicity of his designs.

Wow, it's pretty wild to me that some of these houses are 50 years old yet, excluding the interior, they could probably feature on scandinavian architecture magazines today.

I think you’re right that they’ve remained timeless in some ways.

"...the Wikipedia rabbit hole." I love it, that's rich!

"No closest doors in this house" had me dying 😂 I hope that's true. I don't know anything about art but love your videos. I somehow stumbled across the Basquiat heroin story and stayed for all the rest.

Another great video about the things I had no idea about, I see a lot of gifford style homes along the beach where I am from and always wondered about where they came from and their origins, and now I know.

I’d love to stay in one sometime.

I enjoy your narratives, you are well spoken and appear to be a thoughtful and educated person. Are you also a guitar player?

[@BlackOnBlacki]

Boy, I'd love to listen to this, but I can't bear the vocal fry.
