Consider a bed and breakfast venture at a premiere architectural delight atop a forested bluff in the area of the Shawnee National Forest of Southern Illinois (off of Highway 51 - south of Carbondale approximately 15 miles and about half that distance from Interstate 57).
Retreat from the outer world to a 25 acre kingdom, an American castle built by Hugh Duncan, a professor of sociology whose hallmark was analysis of architecture, in particular American Architecture; a notable event often accounted to the emergence of works by the great Louis Sullivan. Sullivan's famed apprentice FLW had passed away in 1959, so Duncan's choice of a master architect who took, - what was called the Chicago School of Architecture, latter called the Prairie School of Architecture, or even later called Organic School of architecture, to even newer heights of an actual form of American architecture, led him to honor none other than Bruce Goff.
