Hello prd!

Great to hear about this. I had no idea that Walter B-G studied with the great Frank L-W!
I guess the gum trees could have easily placed this house in California.

It is a fantastic house isn't it? And I love the Dupain photos.

The thing that impressed me is that Mervyn only experienced wealth in later life.
The evidence suggests, though, that he had wealth and taste; quite a rare thing
for the nouveau riche. I guess he was a nouveau Richardson grin

Your comment about Muller designing an office block for Victa is startling new news to me.
I wonder what it looked like. Perhaps the entrance hall in this photo?:

Thanks for the feedback.
