This is a fine example of a historic Green Space being set aside for the benefit of the public. Where Edith Farnsworth did her translations of poetry, one can now practice yoga. Where Lord Palumbo once established a impeccable English garden, you can help groom a woodland for permaculture and sustainability. I recommend that you take a yearly membership so that you can make the grounds of the Farnsworth House a relaxing getaway for your Sunday afternoons.
Lovely tour of the house. Pricey but we loved it.
This is a spectacular place to visit as a seminal piece of modern architecture in a bucolic setting. The backstory of the failed relationship between the architect and owner is also fascinating. They need money to help protect the structure from periodic flooding, so please donate if you can.
One of the best kept secrets outside of Chicago. This home is an absolute architectural marvel and the tour is top notch. I cant recommend this enough and Im already looking forward to a summer visit.
While it's always worthwhile to see this architectural icon in person (just about an hour outside Chicago), it was especially great to see it a night during a Mod & Merry tour.
