Art, Vision, and Symmetry. The
Hidden Geometry of Frank Lloyd
Wright (Soft Cover) (Published by
Mission Point Press, Traverse City,
Michigan) |
Shoaff, John H. |
Publishers description: When Frank
Lloyd Wright wrote that certain
"principles behind the effects" gave
his buildings "such vitality,
integrity, and magic as they have,"
he confronted us with a dual
challenge: first, to uncover these
principles, and, second, to explain
how they yielded the remarkable
qualities of "vitality and magic"--
always suffused with a clarity,
immediacy, and harmony that imbue
all his works with a lucent
aesthetic "signature." He gave us
our first clue when he wrote that
each building...

Rizzoli International Publications,

Brtsky, Aaron; Shapiro, Gideon Fink |
Publisher's Description: "This book
begins with a simple question. What
lessons can designers today learn
from Frank Lloyd Wright? Unlike
recent books focusing on Wright's
tumultuous personal life and the
Taliesin Fellowship, and equally
unlike certain works that paint
Wright as a mythical hero or genius,
this handsome and valuable volume
aims to reveal some of the design
tools Wright used to create
exceptional architecture, interiors,
and landscapes" and how we may glean
insight from an American master...

Kaufmann, Edgar Jr. |
First published in 1978. The second
revised edition was published in
1993. This is a reprint of the
second revised edition. Back Cover:
"Organic form was Frank Lloyd
Wright's credo, and its most
splendid embodiment is Fallingwater,
designed and built for the
Pittsburgh merchant Edgar Kaufmann
in the 1930s. The private dwelling,
which juts directly over a waterfall
at Bear Run in western Pennsylvania,
is the boldest and most personal
architectural statement of Wright's
mature years...

Frank Lloyd Wright's Forgotten
House, How an Omission Transformed
the Architect's Legacy (Hard Cover

Wisconsin Press, Madison, Wisconsin,
and Gray’s Inn House, United
Kingdom) |
Hayes, Nicholas D. |
Dust Jacket: While the grandiosity
of Fallingwater and elegance of
Taliesin are universally recognized,
Frank Lloyd Wright's first foray
into affordable housing is
frequently overlooked. Although
Wright began work on his American
System-Built Homes (ASBH) with great
energy in the early 1910s, the
project fell apart following wartime
shortages and disputes between the
architect and his collaborators.
Though he continued to advocate for
the design of affordable small homes
in later years, Wright never spoke...

Cohen, Stuart |
Publisher’s description: In 1897,
Frank Lloyd Wright, Robert Spencer,
Dwight Perkins, and Myron Hunt, all
young architects just starting out
in practice, shared office space in
Chicago. This book is both a history
of that brief period and an attempt
to assess the extent to which they
collaborated on their architectural
designs and on the creation of
architectural theory which would
impact a half century of
architectural design. While there is
little firsthand documentation of
the time spent in their shared lof...

How To Think Like Frank Lloyd Wright
(Soft Cover) (Published by Downtown
Bookworks, Inc., New York, New York) |
Teegarden, Catherine |
Back Cover: Frank Lloyd Wright
invented a whole new type of
architecture. Will you? Frank Lloyd
Wright looked at the world in a
unique way. He saw geometry in
nature, and he imagined structures
that belonged in their
landscapes-from long, low prairie
houses to his most famous creation,
Fallingwater. He looked to the
natural world for inspiration for
his structures, patterns and
materials. This book connects the
dots between the woods of Wright's
childhood and his groundbreaking
organic architecture...

Insufficient Funds. The Financial
Life of Frank Lloyd Wright (Hard

Publishing Co., Pittsburgh, PA) |
Alexander, Peter C. |
Dust Jacket: "Dozens
of books have been written about
architect Frank Lloyd Wright's
architecture, aesthetic, and various
design achievements; however, no one
has looked at his business
practices" until now. In this book,
Peter Alexander focuses on the
financial life of this American
architectural genius after more than
fifteen years of research. Wright
was a spendthrift who earned a
considerable fortune over his
lifetime, but he was a man who never
had sufficient funds to meet his
expenses. Most often, his lack...

his signature Usonian houses, Frank
Lloyd Wright envisioned an earlier
series of affordable models for the

and layout, standardized so that
materials could be precut at the
factory to reduce costs. Only a few

The Oak Park Studio of Frank Lloyd

Chicago, London) |
Schrenk, Lisa D.
|
Dust Jacket: Between 1898 and 1909,
Frank Lloyd Wright's residential
studio in the idyllic Chicago suburb
of Oak Park served as a
nontraditional work setting as he
matured into a leader in his field
and formalized his iconic design
ideology. Here, architectural
historian Lisa D. Schrenk breaks the
myth of Wright as the lone genius
and reveals new insights into his
early career. With a rich narrative
voice and meticulous detail, Schrenk
tracks the practice's evolution:

Adams, Jonathan |
Back Cover: "The story of Frank
Lloyd Wright's life is no less
astounding than his greatest
architectural works. He enmeshed
himself eagerly in myth and hearsay,
and revelled in the extravagance of
his creative persona. Throughout his
long career, Wright strongly
resisted the suggestion that his
accomplishments owed anything to
earthly influences. As much as he
wanted his achievements to be
recognised, he wanted them to be
unaccountable - but they are not.

(born June 8, 1867, in Richland
Center, Wisconsin) has been
considered America's most renowned
architect. Wright is credited for
designing a new form of the American
home, the Prairie house, aspects of
