At the age of 17, Vernon Swaback joined Taliesin and collaborated with FLW for over two decades. Founder of Swaback Partners, he continued his legacy with award-winning designs, including DC Ranch and Biltmore Estates. As the sole actively practicing architect who worked directly with Wright, Swaback's expertise is evident in every detail. Featured in "The Custom Home," this property comes to life through stunning photos and Swaback's own eloquent description:
"Marriage of House and Site: A house should be a companion to the beauty of its setting, embracing color, forms, lighting, landscaping, terraces, and architectural extensions that unite the house with the land. Living in the mystery of beauty is performance art at its best."
