Yesterday was one special day for me. I wrote from Brazil for to Mr. Robert Babbin, one veteran teacher on Architecture School at the Illinois Institute of Technology. He is research coordinator group and was Mies van der Rhoe student. I'd to like know him and I scheduled a meeting on my last week in Chicago, because I think was better for my communication skill in English. Yesterday, after the Adler Planetarium visit, I had the pleasure to visit one of the most beautiful apartment on the Astor Street, decorated like one museum built in the 50's.
Mr. Robert showed me his works, talked me about his academic life and finally gave me one engraving with sky-line Chicago. He is one artist also! Amazing.
To finish one perfect day, we went with his nice wife to have dinner in a Greek restaurant, with great good food white wine. In restaurant we talk ed about architecture and the contemporary life. Was great for me because I felt better that now I can understand well and speak more confortable in English.
But isn't all day that I can do it with one Mies Van der Rhoe disciple.
