inside and outside with paolo soleri

Don Freeman's
photographs 
of
Paolo Soleri's
  Cosanti Foundation
are spectacular.
My "I have 5 minutes before a meeting" reshoot
does not 
give them the justice they deserve.
I guess you will just have to go out and buy
"Artists' Handmade Houses" 
by Don and the writer
Michael Gotkin.
Very cool book.

    These look great. I'm a fan from way back. When I was just a kid I dragged my family to see his models at the UC Berkeley Museum. That must have been about 1971. It was a fantastic exhibit of his huge models. Coincidentally I was just recently looking through Flickr for pictures of Arcosanti. There are a number but not as good as these.
