Louis Sullivan


I mentioned going to see a bank in Sidney, Ohio designed by Louis Sullivan and thought I'd share a few details. Since it was the Fourth of July, that bank, still in operation, was closed so we couldn't see the inside. But you can see a few small pictures here. And you can see a few more of my outside shots here. We really have a wealth of great architecture scattered throughout Ohio.

Louis Sullivan coined the famous phrase "form ever follows function" -- which is often attributed to Mies Van Der Rohe. Sullivan didn't always follow his own advice, however. Lucky for us.

Lucky for us, indeed. Have you visited this gem, Jane?
