OK – since I have zero knowledge about significant architecture, I need some help from the architectural types on this board. I’ve been looking at houses online and I stumbled upon a house designed by someone named Alfred Tobocman. Does anyone know of other homes designed by Tobocman? The listing implies that he is well known -- I’ve never even heard of the guy, but I dig this house in Farmington Hills. This home reminds me of the Mies van der Rohe style condos/coops in Lafayette Park. I couldn’t find anything on the web about the designer, so any insight would be much appreciated. By the way, the greenish carpet in the family room needs to go – lay some hardwood and be done with it.
From the listing:
“Don't miss out on a rare opportunity to own an early Alfred Tobocman designed home nestled in this wooded setting. Enjoy the clean simple lines & understated beauty of this 20th century architect. Everything about this home speaks to the flora and fauna that surrounds it. From the wide & welcoming front porch to the walk out lower level & multi-tiered decks you'll feel like you are "up north" while right here at home.”
