@margo,
Very nice.
An architect/planning friend used to give tours of his work, sorry I missed out on them.

@ossobuco,
Ivrea, Italy - a city I spent a day in and didn't much like at the time. I was probably out of sorts that day.

@ossobuco,
Osso

I knew nothing about him; never heard of him - but my (Aussie) friend in Scotland is a big fan - so we went to the house.

Just fascinating - some great ideas and good use of patterns, and, my favourite, great colours.

On talking to Izzie the other day, I find out that she, too, is a fan.

There's apparently a museum in Glasgow - so I'll try and find it next time I'm there. Has to be something interesting about Glasgow!

@margo,
Well, he's THE main representative of Art Nouveau/Art Déco/Jugendstil in the United Kingdom, and quite a lot of his works are in museums worldwide (even in the National Gallery of Victoria Wink ) [Some of my favourite cups have motifs of his art on them]
