aliesin commands the land in the most beautiful and serene and self-confident way. Its not arrogant, yet its not some shrinking little mouse either. Its...this building that sits there with the most sumptuous, sublime sense of belonging. And there it is, theres that hill, theres this beautiful horizontal thing just placed at the right moment on the hill. As you know, Taliesin is Welsh for shining brow. And it was Wrights belief that a house should be sited on the brow of a hill. Not at the very top, not at the very bottom.
