Okay, who was gonna tell me that Leo was into architecture? Season 1, Ep.17 "Portal Jacked!" @ 2:50 minutes.

Leonardo, after falling into the Hidden City: "Whoa, who's your architect, Frank Lloyd Gargoyle?"

A joke in-reference to Frand Lloyd Wright, the American Architect who was well-known for organic architecture and Prairie architecture that melds humanity and their environment together in harmony.

His work is inspired by Japanese woodblock print.

This comment is supported in the world Leo falls into as the Yokai/Mutants that live there are in harmony with their environment, clearly shown with elegantly built-in houses into the natural terrain of the world as well as the melding of both flying crafts as well as natural flying creatures sharing the skies together.

Leo's got some sort of background in architecture or likes it and I'm all here for the ROTTMNT lore I've uncovered along the way. Like dang, is this where the show creators got inspired for simplifying the turtles to their square/rectangle/circle/triangle shapes?

The Storer House by Frank Lloyd Wright. Designed as an organic extension of its rugged environment, Wright's Storer house - second of the textile-block houses - rises on a series of terraces set into a Hollywood hillside, its cement blocks mixed with decomposed granite from the site itself.

The Los Angeles House: Decoration and Design in America's 20th-Century City, 1995

Hmm, would I rather design a house inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright's Prairie and Usonian styles with some Art Deco accents, or Tudor Revival with Dark Academia and Dieselpunk inspired interior? As a dieselpunk, I'm torn between something that was completely new in the 1930s and within those themes, and someone that is much more common within the setting and layered in the progression of styles.

I don’t mean to be depressing but the older I get the more man-made things seem sad to my eyes. A beautiful house, a beautiful ancient ruin of a castle, is nothing to the weedy and wild nature it sits on. Meticulously landscaped gardens cannot compare with natural prairies. Carefully made-up faces with surgically crafted noses and artificially full lips and good eyeliner lack the character and the charm and the goodness of a plain, wrinkled, freckled, and tired face. I am just grown tired of man’s tired, twisted, corrupted, and failed attempts to mimic God’s creation. I understand that we need structure to survive nature in a fallen world but I more and more desire to see a renewed earth, uncorrupted by sin, in the full glory of God’s creation.

#samantha.txt #I just no longer desire even beautiful architecture when there could be a wooded land #a creek and a prairie and hills and wildflowers #I remember the feeling in college of being made almost physically sick by not being able to leave campus #and only ever seeing the carefully landscaped bits of nature allowed in #I just cannot live like that for very long #I must see God’s hand in nature or I’ll go insane

EpicCentral in Grand Prairie, Texas was built by Hill & Wilkinson and designed by Merriman Anderson Architects.

It's a destination experience that families can enjoy as the restaurants will share the site with future hotels and a convention center. It's currently connected to a recreation center, The Epic, an indoor waterpark, Epic Waters, a restaurant with pickle ball courts, Chicken N Pickle, an inclusive children’s park, PlayGrand Adventures, and an indoor entertainment center, Boulder Adventure Park.

The restaurants are placed along the water’s edge in order to provide the best views. There is a fountain show at night featuring lights and music. The promenade along the artificial lake's edge encourages visitors to walk across the light bridge and in between the different site functions such as the playground and outdoor seating areas.
