Have I ever told you about Cosanti?
Paolo Soleri was a student of Frank Lloyd Wright. He is Italian and spent 1 1/2 years at Taliesin East and West. He was commissioned to build a ceramics factory in Italy and became passionate about ceramics.
He settled here in Scottsdale and created the Cosanti Foundation.
He created the philosophy of ‘Arcology’ – architecture coherent with ecology.
(I interrupt this post to make sure you know ~ I am not really this smart… google is amazing!).
The Foundation’s major contribution is a prototype town called ‘Arcosanti’ in Cordez Junction in Arizona. The pictures are of of Cosanti, his home here in Scottsdale.
You can drive up, walk around his home and look at his beautiful bells.
My daddy ~ kind, strong, giving.
My brother ~ smart, fascinating, gentle.
