Maybe they couldn't go too far wrong with form following function, but I think these "unschooled" farmer/builders often showed an eye for satisfying design and proportion that rivaled a trained architect's.Don Grayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10497657029761169270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3674898426369236660.post-60143033335027832332008-10-16T21:30:00.000-07:002008-10-16T21:30:00.000-07:00Thanks, Diana.Thanks, Diana.Don Grayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10497657029761169270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3674898426369236660.post-11350122850383515642008-10-16T21:29:00.000-07:002008-10-16T21:29:00.000-07:00Hi Cooper--thanks a bunch!Hi Cooper--thanks a bunch!Don Grayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10497657029761169270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3674898426369236660.post-31590698718173695512008-10-16T20:48:00.000-07:002008-10-16T20:48:00.000-07:00This is a scene that many would overlook, but I'm ...This is a scene that many would overlook, but I'm glad you didnot. I am sure function was foremost to the form when these were built. Shelter trumped art form on these farms.
