What a lovely site that is. The guest pavillion is a bit... stark... and, um, missing something, but the site is truly lovely. Sigh.
Stark is a good word for it. I think that one of the issues with FD’s real estate is that he would renovate or build to suit his taste. He spent too much building things the way he liked them, instead of working with clients to build or renovate a house based on their own taste. I think his designs were so modern to the point of being unappealing to a large amount of buyers. I don’t think that it isn’t that people wouldn’t spend a few million on a house, it’s that they wouldn’t spend a few million on those houses.
