The PJ House in Cluj-Napoca, designed by architect Miklós Péterffy, is a contemporary marvel that revitalizes the Art Deco style for the 21st century.
,One of the key aspects of the PJ House is its commitment to sustainability. Péterffy has incorporated eco-friendly technologies and materials throughout the design. Solar panels, energy-efficient lighting, and advanced insulation techniques are seamlessly integrated into the structure, reducing the house’s environmental footprint.
Did you know where Cluj-Napoca was? I looked it up on DuckDuckGo, and found it's in Romania! What do you know!

And while we're on the subject of Frank Lloyd Wright, here's a shot of him at work.
At the Guggenheim Museum, to open in 1959.

And an intentional community here in Black Mountain NC - I'll probably post more about it.
Today's quote:
Ray Bradbury, said: "There are worse crimes than burning books. One of them is not reading them."And: "I don't try to describe the future. I try to prevent it." And: "Go to the edge of the cliff and jump off. Build your wings on the way down."
Good morning, just after 6 here. I must say that I never expected the first house to be located in Romania. It sure looks look in the second photo, kind of inviting with the lights on although his houses don't usually look inviting to me. Have a good day, eh.
ReplyDeleteHi AC. The first house was designed by Miklós Péterffy, not Frank Lloyd Wright (though I've sure posted a lot of his here.) An Art Deco house just doesn't fit into many neighborhoods.
DeleteI love the modern houses, the first one is a favorite. Did I mention I love your header photo.
ReplyDeleteThanks. Soon I'll try to update the header with the new gazebo included...still waiting for leaves to be in color.
Delete...we have a few Art Deco house here, they are standouts!
ReplyDeleteThe Art Deco houses do stand out, definitely. If houses are close together in a neighborhood, they are even more obvious.
DeleteThe video sent me also to "Dancing rabbit" - My time on earth is done but if I had youthfulness and more future I would be most interested in building a straw and clay house!
ReplyDeleteOh isn't that interesting! I've got some more posts coming up about my visit to Earth Ships, built of all kinds of alternative materials. I find it interesting, but sure am not trying to live in one!
DeleteWonderful architecture! And quotes, for that matter!
ReplyDeleteThanks. I like all except the one about jumping off the cliff and building wings on the way down...sounds like someone could get hurt pretty badly if they took him literally.
