Gehry Works On His House

Finally, at 75, Frank Gehry is building himself a house. “It is the work of a man who has achieved a measure of inner peace – someone who no longer feels a need to rage against established institutions. Yet it is anything but complacent. Its lightness of spirit is a testament to Mr. Gehry’s creative stamina at a point in life when many architects of his stature are content to recycle well-tested formulas. If only as an example of his willingness to venture into unexplored territory, it will undoubtedly rank as one of his most important works.”
