520 | _aThis richly illustrated volume of designs by the visionary American architect Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959) focuses on his unique ability to integrate structure and settings in ways that responded to the client's needs, the nature of the site, and the social changes that evolved over his seventy-year career. His respect for natural materials, and his willingness to experiment with machine-age technology, resulted in rare essays in wood, stone, brick, patterned and poured concrete, glass, and other elements combined in harmonious ways to express his elusive ideal: an organic architecture of free-flowing spaces dedicated to common and private use in ways that enhanced individual dignity and harmonious relationships. | ||
520 | 8 | _aWright defined space as "the invisible fountain from which all rhythms flow and through which they must pass." His principles are expressed not only in the residences that comprise the majority of his work, but in houses of worship, school buildings, workplaces, and resorts -- many still extant, others demolished over time, but documented in the Frank Lloyd Wright Archives housed in his Scottsdale, Arizona, home/studio, Taliesin West. | |
520 | 8 | _aThis comprehensive book includes many of Wright's best-known works -- the Meyer May House in Grand Rapids, Michigan; Chicago's landmark Robie House; the incomparable Kaufmann House, Fallingwater, in Mill Run, Pennsylvania; Oak Park's monolithic Unity Temple; and the cantilevered office tower built for Harold C. Price in Bartlesville, Oklahoma. Acclaimed architectural photographers Paul Rocheleau and Balthazar and Christian Korab help the reader to appreciate the sculptural quality of the "Wright space," as enhanced by the designer's textiles, art glass, pottery, metalwork, furniture, and fixtures. The genius of a master builder unfolds in this handsome volume, which will delight anyone with an interest in architecture, design, or interiors. | |
