ah that was too easy. congratulations to blank. in addition to your bonus blank, it was also never built - which is too bad. would've love to see how "transparent" it could've been with freestanding brick walls.
now moving on question 2 for $2000 - and yes, i have nothing to do right now.
Well, since we are on this "brick" theme, please name the architect that represents and/or associates with the following:
• Between Silence and Light
• The Unmeasurable and the Measurable
• That which is has always been.
• Order is.
• The Nature of Material.
and for the bonus - which i know will give it away - he once asked a brick what it wanted to be. what was the brick's reply?
ok.that was an educated guess. ask another one, but don't make it hard this time. i want to win. how about my bonus answer? brick said that for sure. send me 50$.
I think the question was:
'What do you like brick?'
And the brick said:
'I like an arch.'
I have one too:
- Revolutionized the design and building process.
- Born in a suburb of Memphis.
- 'Came in Peace'
- Became well known for his distinct style and unorthodox approach.
no man. he was the conceptual power establishing bauhaus. when his better connected comrades like gropious and mies got jobs in usa he briefly went to japan and than to turkey, where he did a lot of government buildings and wrote the cirriculum in one of the architecture schools which they still use. he symbolicly revolutionized the use of glass.a very important architect in regards to bauhaus.
died and buried in edirne,turkey.

who can give me the name of:
1. the project
2. the architect(s)
3. the year it was designed
keep in mind that this is a "very well known" architect(s) - not some local hero.
bonus: can anyone elaborate on the significant(s) of this project?
brick country house, mies van der rohe, 1923/4. as for the bonus, freestanding brick walls and intersecting spaces?
I think it would be more fun if this was like an ink blot test.
It's a fist breaking through a brick wall.

he was michael graves.
brick's reply was,"been there done that". send the money to me.
dehhhhhhhh (rejection sound)....sorry ab. i would say good guess, but nah, that was a really bad guess.
silence, measurable, order, and nature of material? graves? you're kidding right? btw, what's with you and graves anyway?
oh well, someone's going to get it when they here in the morning.
easy - Louis Kahn
Oh, and fogot the bonus-
....IT wants to be something greater than it is.
ok.that was an educated guess. ask another one, but don't make it hard this time. i want to win. how about my bonus answer? brick said that for sure. send me 50$.
no ab. that's not what the brick said. so i'm keeping my 50 bucks and sorry A, that's not the answer either.
hanibal, god have mercy. when am i gonna score?
sounds like you haven't "score" in a while. and sorry, i hope you know it's only going to get "harder" dude.
btw. i meant to say that A's answer is correct, but the bonus is wrong.
i will wait for the bonus then we will move on - en la manana.
'been there done that'. brick said that. keep the change.
form of -- brick! shape of -- arch! wonder twin powers, activate!
