The color and texture of the movie is unmistakable 8mm film. Beautiful, stunning shots. The play of light on various surfaces is remarkable. Love the shadows of metal lawn furniture on the ground, the foliage next to the walls and the light through textured glass, slightly revealing what’s behind it. I so enjoyed watching your 8mm film. Excellent.
Can someone please tell the viewer what the girl in the window is doing on the preview picture? Is she doing what I thin she’s doing? And how did that pick make it to the actual landing pick on RU-vid?
I was raised in a home designed by Edward Killingsworth... and everything this man describes about the experiences of living in an architect designed home is right on the money. The value of good architecture is only paralleled by nature, itself.
One of my favorite homes I've ever seen. It captured the style so perfectly and their choice of restoration and decoration match perfectly as well. What a dream to live in a house such as that.
Really great comparison with cars. The "impracticality" of these ranch homes is very much like how we modify our cars to be a little bit "impractical" on the streets. We overlook them BECAUSE RACECAR. With these homes, we overlook those bits BECAUSE MCM.
Ok this dude needs friends and love bad....that is so heartlessly austere and people-picture-free that it's just sad but understandable. A living reminder that it's possible to succeed at the wrong thing and waste your life.....needs God like we all do.
I really enjoyed your original feature on this house here 6 months ago. It was fascinating to learn the history of the house, it's creators, and how it was brought back to original condition by Karen and Bob in 2017. The photography was excellent and showed a lot of features of the house. What a terrific story! This "bonus feature" , however really misses the mark for me in that it is not historic old 8mm film of the house from the 60's, it is simply "simulated" film or digital video from your feature on the house less than a year ago made to look old. What's the point of creating an out of focus, shaky modern imitation of something that never existed? A proper "bonus feature" would have been some additional "new" information about the project or people involved. Perhaps comparing this restoration with another existing Alside house that most likely has been "remuddled" or more history on the Alside Homes Corporation itself. Surely they didn't build 20 houses per month in several states and then go bankrupt in 10 months and only 27 still exist. Some "bonus feature".
Hey Mark, thanks for your comment. Sorry to hear you didn't enjoy the video. Btw this was 8mm film that we shot while on our trip to the home, no it was not shot back in the 60's but it certainly isn't "simulated" digital video. Hope you enjoy the upcoming videos.
The original design intent is amazing. I wonder if modern enhancements to the kitchen and bathroom would increase or decrease the value? I think someone would come in and completely tear down and rebuilt…thoughts?
Ummmmm you live in AZ, in a black house, no attic with insulation where it gets over 110 degrees 4 months out of the year….. your electric bill must be insane to keep that place cool! Good thing you have a pool that has 90 degree water in the summer time….. 🥵
