Robie house, Meyer May house, George Stockman house, Henry J, Allen house, and Herbert F. Johnson house, "Wingspread". Also includes a Gazetteer and Index and Further Reading. Abby Moor has written extensively on the subjects of design and architecture. Her previous books include a selection of titles in the Frank Lloyd Wright at a Glance series, such as Prairie Houses and Interiors. Under a different pseudonym, she has published numerous specialist academic books on aspects of design and architecture. She has pursued a higher academic degree in the History of Design. Frank Lloyd Wright (June 8, 1867 - April 9, 1959) was an American architect, designer, writer, and educator. He designed more than 1,000 structures over a creative period of 70 years. Wright played a key role in the architectural movements of the twentieth century, influencing architects worldwide through his works and hundreds of apprentices in his Taliesin Fellowship. Wright believed in designing in harmony with humanity and the environment, a philosophy he called organic architecture. This philosophy was exemplified in Fallingwater (1935), which has been called "the best all-time work of American architecture". With their bright and open spaces, in low buildings that bland with the landscape, Frank Lloyd Wright's prairie house designs altered the course of 20th Century architecture--and established a true American style. Many of these beautiful structures, found in Oak Park and River Forest, have now become registered National Historic Landmarks. They include small houses and mansions, churches and government buildings, gas stations and bridges. And Wright thought not only of the building itself, but of the interior design: he, himself, often chose or created the furniture, glass, fabrics, and other accessories that pulled everything together. First among these masterpieces was the Ward Willits House (and gardener's cottage), built in Highland Park, Illinois in 1902. Another piece de resistance, recognized as the epitome of the form: Chicago's exquisite Robie House (1909). Also included are the Johnson "Wingspread," Petit Memorial Chapel, and other major homes built from 1901-1937--so you can see how Wright's work evolved through time.

Wright played a key role in the architectural movements of the twentieth century, influencing architects worldwide through his works and hundreds of apprentices in his Taliesin Fellowship. Wright believed in designing in harmony with humanity and the environment, a philosophy he called organic architecture. This philosophy was exemplified in Fallingwater (1935), which has been called "the best all-time work of American architecture". When Frank Lloyd Wright designed a building, he did not simply construct a shell and walk away. To the contrary, after consulting with the residents and taking their lifestyle into consideration, he would create an entire layout for the house. His use of interior space and the furnishings he designed are as startling and attractive as his buildings. From art-glass lamps and statuary to tables and chairs to carpets and fabrics, he strove to carry through the themes and motifs he carefully planned out for the particular building. Following an introduction that explains the architect's philosophy of design and his approach to interiors, 15 case studies and a selection of other buildings showcase just how spectacular, yet livable, his interiors could be. Among the case studies are Frank Lloyd Wright Home and Studio, Susan Lawrence Dana House, Dana-Thomas House, Lawrence Memorial Library, Edwin H. Cheney House, Aline Barnsdall House, Hollyhock House, John Storer House, Stanley Rosenbaum House, Taliesin West, Loren Pope House, Pope-Leighey House, Lowell E. Walter House, Cedar Rock, Kenneth Laurent House, Isadore Zimmerman House, Harold C. Price Company Tower, Donald & Virginia Lovness House, and George Albin House. Also has Gazetteer and Index.

This philosophy was exemplified in Fallingwater (1935), which has been called "the best all-time work of American architecture". From 1917 to 1924 Frank Lloyd Wright spent much of his time in California, and there created a small number of buildings that remain classics of American architecture. Using a groundbreaking building process, which he called his "textile block system" these buildings were constructed with precast concrete blocks, molded with decoration on both sides and inset with glass to allow light to filter through in interesting patterns. The prototype was one of Wright's most famous buildings, "Hollyhock House," influenced by ancient Mayan design and built for heiress Aline Barnsdall in the Hollywood Hills. In these colorful pages, visit the Hollyhock along with some of Wright's most distinctive textile block structures, including the Ennis, Millard, Freeman, and Storer houses, as well as the controversial Arizona Biltmore Hotel. Rich illustrations and an insightful text showcase an American original at his creative best. Simon Clay (Photographer) (ilustrador).…
