The Samuel Cupples House was built for was built for Samuel Cupples a wealthy St. Louis entrepreneur who had built his business Cupples Woodenware starting in the 1840's and became a millionaire by age of thirty. This house designed in a Richardsonian Romanesque style by architect Thomas Annan was completed in 1890. The house cost over $500,000 to construct, a very expensive home for that era. The Cupples family lived in the house until 1919. The house was then used as the headquarters of Brotherhood of Railroad Telegraphers until 1946 when it became the possession of Saint Louis University. The building was used for many uses and was threatened with demolition. Due to the efforts of Father Maurice McNamee, S.J. the house was preserved and renovated. It is now used as an art museum and is open for tours.

An Avant-garde Home from 1933
The Sonneveld House, designed by architects Leendert van der Vlugt and Johannes Andreas Brinkman, for Albertus Sonneveld, director of the Van Nelle Factory, is a clear example of the principles of the House Machine theorized by Le Corbusier and represented in the Netherlands by the Nieuwe Bouwen, the Dutch branch of functionalism. It is a comfortable house as a machine, designed around its inhabitants, efficient and hygienic, thanks to new materials can provide light, air and needed to live in complete psychophysical wellbeing space, thus responding to the five principles that Le Corbusier stipulated in his book “Towards a New Architecture” in 1921.
Sonneveld House illustrates how the influence of the new trends in architecture were received by the upper middle class.
Antwerp’s Port House, designed by Zaha Hadid Architects, merges historic substance with futuristic form. The glass volume floats above the old fire station like a diamond above the water—a tribute to the city’s maritime legacy. Its faceted triangular façade reflects the evening light in dynamic ways. Captured from a dramatic low-angle perspective, the photo emphasizes the bold geometry and the striking tension between heritage and innovation.

Das Hafenhaus in Antwerpen, entworfen von Zaha Hadid Architects, verbindet historische Substanz mit futuristischer Form. Der gläserne Aufbau schwebt über dem alten Feuerwehrhaus wie ein Diamant über dem Wasser – eine Hommage an die maritime Vergangenheit der Stadt. Die Fassade besteht aus facettierten Dreiecken, die das Licht der Abendstimmung facettenreich brechen. Fotografiert aus extremer Untersicht betont das Bild die kühne Geometrie und die spannungsreiche Balance von Alt und Neu.

L’île de Versailles est une île artificielle de 1,7 hectare, créée en 1831 et occupée à l’origine par des tanneurs et des charpentiers de marine, a été transformée en jardin japonais à partir de 1983. La composition des rocailles et des cascades s’y articule autour de 3 bâtiments inspirés de l’habitat traditionnel nippon. Parmi eux, la Maison de l’Erdre, qu’entoure un jardin zen, sert de cadre à des expositions consacrées à la rivière et son environnement aquatique. Située au cœur de l'île, la Maison de l'Erdre s'inspire d'un pavillon de thé japonais dans lequel le maître de maison reçoit ses hôtes : La conception s'inspire des réalisations des architectes nippons et reconstitue un paysage de nature. Les érables et les pins sylvestres taillés en arbres nuages structurent le jardin. Les massifs de bambous recréent une ambiance asiatique. Azalées, rhododendrons, cerisiers et merisiers annoncent le printemps par leur floraison, en écho avec ce que la nature exprime au Japon. La maison de l'Erdre, conçue comme un pavillon de thé, accueille des aquariums. L’île de Versailles, située sur l'Erdre à Nantes, est une île artificielle qui a été réalisée avec des matériaux de terrassements et de dragages lors du creusement du canal de Nantes à Brest. Le paysage recréé et structuré par des rocailles, cascades et pièces d'eau est richement planté de végétaux exotiques tels que bambous, cyprès chauves, rhododendrons, camélias et cerisiers du Japon.
The island of Versailles is an artificial island of 1.7 hectares, created in 1831 and originally occupied by tanners and shipwrights, was transformed into a Japanese garden from 1983. The composition of the rock gardens and waterfalls are structured around 3 buildings inspired by traditional Japanese housing. Among them, the Maison de l'Erdre, surrounded by a Zen garden, serves as a setting for exhibitions devoted to the river and its aquatic environment. Located in the heart of the island, the Maison de l'Erdre is inspired by a Japanese tea pavilion in which the master of the house receives his guests: The design is inspired by the achievements of Japanese architects and recreates a natural landscape . Maple trees and Scots pines cut into cloud trees structure the garden. The bamboo beds recreate an Asian atmosphere. Azaleas, rhododendrons, cherry trees and cherry trees herald spring with their flowering, echoing what nature expresses in Japan. The Erdre house, designed as a tea pavilion, houses aquariums. The island of Versailles, located on the Erdre in Nantes, is an artificial island that was made with earthworks and dredging materials during the digging of the Nantes-Brest canal. The landscape recreated and structured by rockeries, waterfalls and ponds is richly planted with exotic plants such as bamboos, bald cypresses, rhododendrons, camellias and Japanese cherry trees.

The first Art Nouveau houses and interior decoration appeared in Brussels in the 1890s, in the architecture and interior design of houses designed by Paul Hankar, Henry Van de Velde, and especially Victor Horta, whose Hôtel Tassel was completed in 1893. It moved quickly to Paris, where it was adapted by Hector Guimard, who saw Horta's work in Brussels and applied the style for the entrances of the new Paris Metro. It reached its peak at the 1900 Paris International Exposition, which introduced the Art Nouveau work of artists such as Louis Tiffany. It appeared in graphic arts in the posters of Alphonse Mucha, and the glassware of René Lalique and Émile Gallé. From Belgium and France, it spread to the rest of Europe, taking on different names and characteristics in each country. It often appeared not only in capitals, but also in rapidly growing cities that wanted to establish artistic identities (Budapest, Turin and Palermo in Italy; Glasgow in Scotland; Munich and Darmstadt in Germany), as well as in centres of independence movements (Helsinki in Finland, then part of the Russian Empire; Barcelona in Catalonia, Spain). By 1910, Art Nouveau's influence had faded. It was replaced as the dominant European architectural and decorative style first by Art Deco and then by Modernism. Miksa Roth was commisioned to create the stained glass and mosaics. Miksa Roth was the greatest stained glass artist of Hungary, and he made his way though in this field somewhere between the 19th and the 20th century. His work was, at the time, appreciated in the entire Europe, and repeatedly awarded and displayed at reputed at international exhibitions.

UPDATE 10/11/2010: The new owner tracked me down to learn more about my grandfather's work and to tell me that he did, indeed, design this house. Woo hoo!
She and her husband love the house pretty much as it is and plan to redo the kitchen and master bedroom (which they both desperately need) and preserve the rest. Today is a good day!
The Nathan G. Moore House also known as the Moore-Dugal Residence is a house designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. The house was built one block south of Wright's home and studio at 333 Forest Avenue in the Chicago suburb of Oak Park, Illinois. It was originally completed in 1895 in the Tudor Revival style at the request of client Nathan Moore. Wright obliged his client's wishes, but long after disliked the house for its adherence to historical styles.
Fallingwater is a house designed by architect Frank Lloyd Wright in 1935 in rural southwestern Pennsylvania, 61 miles southeast of Pittsburgh. The house was built partly over a waterfall on Bear Run in the Mill Run section of Stewart Township, Fayette County, Pennsylvania, located in the Laurel Highlands of the Allegheny Mountains. The house was designed as a weekend home for the family of Liliane and Edgar J. Kaufmann, owner of Kaufmann's Department Store. After its completion, Time called Fallingwater Wright's "most beautiful job" and it is listed among Smithsonian's "Life List of 28 Places to See Before You Die." The house was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1966. In 1991, members of the American Institute of Architects named Fallingwater the "best all-time work of American architecture" and in 2007, it was ranked 29th on the list of America's Favorite Architecture according to the AIA. It and seven other Wright constructions were inscribed on the World Heritage List under the title "The 20th-Century Architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright" in July 2019.

Park Crescent is directly outside one of the entrances to Regent's Park tube station. The crescent consists of elegant stuccoed terraced houses designed by the late architect John Nash, which form a semicircle to the south of Marylebone Road. The crescent was part of Nash's vision of a Roman-inspired imperial West End and was meant to form a Circus, but Park Square was eventually built to its north, scuppering the plan.
As a separate point worthy of note, Nash apparently collaborated with Decimus Burton, who designed Royal Tunbridge Wells.

The Robie House, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright for his client Frederick C. Robie, is considered one of the most important buildings in the history of American architecture. Designed in Wright's Oak Park studio in 1908 and completed in 1910, the building inspired an architectural revolution. Its sweeping horizontal lines, dramatic overhangs, stretches of art glass windows and open floor plan make it a quintessential Prairie style house. Although it was designed one hundred years ago, the building remains a masterpiece of modern architecture.

It was originally completed in 1895 in the Tudor Revival style at the request of client Nathan Moore. Wright obliged his client's wishes, but long after disliked the house for its adherence to historical styles.
A 1922 fire gave Wright the opportunity to redesign the house. The structure was completely rebuilt above the first floor in a manner in keeping with Wright's other works of the late 1910s and early 1920s. While the new design stayed evocative of Tudor architecture, the house was heavily ornamented by details of Sullivanesque, Mayan, and other exotic origins. Wright’s second scheme remains largely intact today and the house continues to be a private residence despite a brief period as a tour home.

On a visit to the Sign of the Takahe for a coffee. November 2019 Christchurch New Zeeland.
The Sign of the Takahe is today a cafe/bar with casual dining with a unique wedding and function space, built in the style of an English Manor House. Designed by J. G. Collins, construction was carried out between 1918 and 1948. The Takahe also provides one of the better panoramic views of the city of Christchurch, New Zealand, the Canterbury Plains and the Southern Alps.
Named after the flightless native New Zealand bird, the Takahe, it was initially one of the roadhouses planned by Henry George (Harry) Ell as part of his scheme to preserve the natural state of the Port Hills which overlook Christchurch and Lyttelton harbour.
Ell had envisaged four roadhouses being built, and three were completed before Ell's death in 1934. These were Sign of the Kiwi, Sign of the Bellbird and Sign of the Packhorse.
However, Ell wished the Takahe to be a more substantial structure and spent years studying design of English Manors, castles and inns, to be incorporated into the final construction of the Takahe. Indeed, the dining room is an exact replica of the historic Haddon Hall in Derbyshire.
A great deal of improvisation was required to minimise cost. For example, the stone was quarried locally from the Port Hills and hand chiseled into blocks using primitive tools, the heavy Kauri beams in the entrance hall were salvaged from a former bridge over the Hurunui River and the ceilings in the inner most dining room were painted on timber cut from packing cases.
The building has a Category I listing with Heritage New Zealand. It is located adjacent to Cracroft Reserve.

Casa Vicens, Carrer de les Carolines 20-26, Barcelona.
ENGLISH
Casa Vicens is a house in Barcelona, designed by Antoni Gaudí, now a museum. It is located in the neighbourhood of Gràcia on Carrer de les Carolines, 24. It is considered one of the first buildings of Art Nouveau and was the first house designed by Gaudí.
The style of Casa Vicens is a reflection of Neo-Mudéjar architecture, one of the popular styles that can be seen throughout Gaudí's architecture, including oriental and neoclassical as well. However, what was unique about Gaudí was that he mixed different styles together and incorporated a variety of different materials, such as iron, glass, ceramic tiles and concrete, many of which can be seen in this building. Gaudí broke away from tradition and created his new language of architecture, and Casa Vicens represents a new chapter in the history of Catalan architecture as well as the beginning of a successful career for Gaudí.
WIKIPEDIA
CATALÀ
La casa Vicens és un edifici modernista i primer projecte important de l'arquitecte Antoni Gaudí començat a construir l'any 1883. Està situat al carrer Carolines, número 24, del barri de Gràcia de Barcelona. És una obra declarada Bé Cultural d'Interès Nacional.
Casa senyorial enjardinada de complexa volumetria, Gaudí combina la pedra, el maó vist i una extensa gamma de rajola de València de colors diversos, on la influència d'un orientalisme d'arrel islàmica és palesa.[1]
Les tanques, de ferro forjat, s'inspiren directament en la natura i, concretament, en el margalló (palmera pròpia del Mediterrani occidental). Baranes i reixes són també de forja i preludien els motius decoratius modernistes. La marqueteria de les gelosies del jardí, la jardineria mateixa, l'acabat dels interiors oscil·len entre solucions arabitzants, de caràcter mediterrani o d'apropament a la natura.
A la part interior domina com a principal element decoratiu la fusta tallada i policromada, que fa conjunt amb el mobiliari i produeix un conjunt de caràcter fantasiós.

The German architects Becker & Baedecker designed this house in Huai Hai Road. I need to check but roughly at 1912.
This is the Guangzhou Opera House designed by Zaha Hadid. There is certainly a lot of new and interesting architecture in the new area of Guangzhou known as the Zhujiang (Pearl River) New City. Other world renowned architects who have designed buildings here include Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, Wilkinson Eyre and Rocco Yim.
