"I wish this shelter to blend with the landscape. I will make it of the rock to be found there, of the lumber to be found there, and I will cover it with the vines that are native"
RUSSEL WRIGHT'S MANITOGA (2011)
This short film from Anthropologie explores the beautiful Manitoga, which was created on a ravaged industrial site in Garrison, NY. The land was regenerated by mid century designer Russel Wright and his wife, designer Mary Einstein Wright, to be a home, studio and garden for their family. After Mary's death, buildings were designed with architect David Leavitt.
The site is open to the public as the Russel Wright Design Centre (although currently closed due to winter weather). It also appears in the documentary ART HOUSE (2016). (Image via Dwell)

Kendrick Bangs Kellogg (1934 – February 16, 2024)
One of the leading pioneers of Organic architecture was Kendrick Bangs Kellogg, an architect from San Diego in the United States of America. Although his first influences came after meeting the man responsible for coining the term “Organic Architecture,” Frank Lloyd Wright, Kellogg’s work, is unique. He believes that great architecture is born out of risks and these risks help make the structure distinctive.
His work can truly make the user experience the space and its surroundings. This experience is so acutely possible because of the detailing that goes into all his designs. Each element awakens different senses. The choice of material helps create a form, that although it might look heavy, instantly connects you to the ground and environment surrounding it.
Despite looking heavy, Kendrick masterfully adds a sense of fluidity into his designs, which bring about a sense of harmony between the structure and its context. Throughout his long and influential career, Kellogg has made many structures ranging from residences to restaurants.
1981 - The Sam Yen House, aka Lotus House, aka Moonlight House, 7799 Starlight Drive, San Diego CA.

Kendrick Bangs Kellogg (1934 – February 16, 2024)
Kendrick Bangs Kellogg was the pioneer of organic architecture. In the past decades, Kellogg completed over a dozen striking structures (residential and public), each marked with his distinctly curved, irregular, and expressive style. Influenced by his family’s ties to Frederick Law Olmsted, the ‘Father of Landscape Architecture’, Kellogg’s independent architectural journey began after a brief meeting with Frank Lloyd Wright in 1955.
However, unlike Wright and organic architect Bruce Goff, his style explicitly defies categorization, often alluding to a mix of the Sydney Opera House and Stonehenge.
In fact, Kellogg prioritized durability, solidity, and intricacy, a vision reinforced by his collaboration with visionary clients, using high-quality materials like copper and concrete.
Sculpted over 30 years, the Kellogg Doolittle estate in Joshua Tree California is probably the greatest example of organic architecture signed by Kellogg.

Here are two of my most recent drawings. I'm continuing to make highly colorful pieces, but for these I wanted to try working in a relatively monochromatic mode. The first was done using colored pencils and pens, while the other was just one colored pencil. It's been interesting to do these and see the resurgence of some mark-making and the application of negative space I mostly haven't used since doing large-scale landscape drawings in grad school.

Okay, who was gonna tell me that Leo was into architecture? Season 1, Ep.17 "Portal Jacked!" @ 2:50 minutes.
Leonardo, after falling into the Hidden City: "Whoa, who's your architect, Frank Lloyd Gargoyle?"
Tumblr media
A joke in-reference to Frand Lloyd Wright, the American Architect who was well-known for organic architecture and Prairie architecture that melds humanity and their environment together in harmony.
Tumblr media
His work is inspired by Japanese woodblock print.

This comment is supported in the world Leo falls into as the Yokai/Mutants that live there are in harmony with their environment, clearly shown with elegantly built-in houses into the natural terrain of the world as well as the melding of both flying crafts as well as natural flying creatures sharing the skies together.
Leo's got some sort of background in architecture or likes it and I'm all here for the ROTTMNT lore I've uncovered along the way. Like dang, is this where the show creators got inspired for simplifying the turtles to their square/rectangle/circle/triangle shapes?

'Het Zandkasteel' by Alberts en Van Huut, after thoroughly renovating it for housing and other functions. Luckily, original architect Max van Huut was involved in the process.
Above: the main entrance and lobby. Didn't get to see the International School part (they chopped the building in two parts).
Meandering through the complex, the inner street on the 2nd level connects the ten towers.

Arriving at each of those towers, you are greeted by natural light, sitting elements, art and plants.

Looking up and down the towers:

Like I explained in my previous scan posts, it's built in 1987 in Antroposophical style so 'organic design' is a key element in Het Zandkasteel. You also see that in the details, like mushroom-shaped lamps and no parallel lines:

The coloring of the elevator portals, to know at which tower you have to be, is still there along with the crazy ceiling detail

Some views from the inner street, looking down to some of the plazas:

There are three gardens ON the parking garages underneath. This is the public one:

That's right, big trees on top of parking garages in 1987. Some last portrait pictures:
