Lauren Mattes: Personal/Public
Taliesin West, Frank Lloyd Wright's home in Scottsdale, Arizona:
My family ended up taking a lot of architecturally based vacations when my siblings and I were younger. I don't know why my parents decided that because I know for a fact that I didn't appreciate any of the things I saw but I wish I could go back there now. This was on a really long family vacation that took place in three or four different states across a month or so. I remember being in a theatre type area that had a piano in it. The tour guide asked if anyone could play and my parents quietly suggested my sister or me since we were taking lessons, but neither of us played anything. I also remember trying to ask my dad a lot of questions, but just bothering him instead. Architectural landmarks are a very familial thing now, because of my dad's profession and because of the times spent there.
