Description
"This is an ideal book to introduce the work of one of the 20th century's great masters" Professor David Porter, Head of the Mackintosh School of Architecture
50 years after his death, Frank Lloyd Wright's innovative designs are more relevant than ever. Wright's Usonian houses anticipated many of the features of the 2008 Stirling Prize winner Accordia housing: towering chimneys, horizontal lines, and innovative use of multiple levels and projecting balconies. Wright's design philosophy was also decades ahead of its time; Wright positioned windows, balconies, entire buildings to make use of the warmth of the sun and the insulation of the earth.
The Wright Experience spans the architect's seven-decade career through stunning photography, bringing the reader inside these remarkable buildings. Other features include an introductory essay by Margo Stipe of the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation, detailed timeline of Wright's life, annotated floor plans, and original artwork by Wright.
