It's called the Bavinger House and is just East of Norman OK. It's architecturally famous, designed by Bruce Goff. Built in a creek bank with a swinging bridge across the creek. They grow orchids on the walls and there is an indoor Koi pond with stepping stones crossing it to go between the living and dining areas. The second picture is looking from the dining across the pond to the living area. The bowl with the light at the bottom is one of the bedrooms that hang from the ceiling like a bird cage. Those turquoise blue chunks are slag from a glass factory in OK. They are positioned to filter the light coming into the house. All the rock was collected locally, from farmers fields. There are tons of rose rock throughout at different levels like the blue glass. The walls of the house spiral out like a nautilus shell following the same golden ratios. At the point log e would be radially graphed is a huge vulcanic stone suspended over a pool with water pumped up through it to make a fountain. At Pi there is a huge granite pi symbol. Google Bavinger house for lots more pics and info.
