Frank Lloyd Wright frank lloyd wright online companion to the PBS documentary on this famous architect. Includes a biography of his life and descriptions http://collaboratory.nunet.net/nssd112/oakterrace/imc/wright.html
Extractions: What made his style unique? Wright's view of architecture was beautifully simple. Wright's houses had low, sweeping rooflines hanging over walls with many windows. He had massive brick or stone fireplaces at the center of the house. His rooms were very open, one leading to another. His houses seemed to be reaching out toward some real or imagined prairie horizon. On the other hand, Wright's urban buildings tended to be walled in, but lit through skylights. Return to Top

Extractions: The World Authors Series Sample Profile Return to World Authors WRIGHT, FRANK LLOYD (June 8, 1869 ), was born in Richland Center, Wisconsin, the son of William Russell Cary Wright and Anna Lloyd (Jones). His father was a musician and clergyman from New England, his mother a schoolteacher with strong roots in the Unitarian faith and community. After a peripatetic childhood, Wright's family settled in Madison, Wisconsin in 1880. Anna Wright sent Frank to work summers on his uncles' farms in nearby Spring Green. His time spent working in the vast, flat prairie fields of the Middle West shaped his vision of what was to become "organic architecture." In a lecture published in 1935, Wright remarked upon the importance of simplicity and space informing organic architecture, tracing its origins back to summers on the Lloyd-Jones' farmsteads, "You may see in these various feelings all taking the same direction that I was born an American child of the ground and of space, welcoming spaciousness as a modern human need as well as learning to see it as the natural human opportunity."

Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater Fallingwater Excellent little book on the Fallingwater house by famous architect frank lloyd wright designed in 1935 ( He also designed Guggenheim Museum ). http://biologybooks.net/Frank_Lloyd_Wright's_Fallingwater.html
Extractions: Carla Lind's small-format, 58-page book on 'Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater' is an excellent introduction both to this remarkable structure, but also to the interesting life of the architect Frank Lloyd Wright. The book is very short, and could almost qualify as a Cliff's Notes version of Wright's architectural style and principles, as well as being a remarkably thorough introduction to Fallingwater, which is perhaps the most famous modern home in America. Built in the midst of the Great De... This is probably the oddest book I've read in a while. It delivers what it promises in the title-it is a story about E.J. Kaufmann, Frank Lloyd Wright and the house they built together. What makes it odd is the amount of time (and print) given to the social/psychological background surrounding the lives of the players, particularly E.J. Kaufmann. The author believes that anti-semitism played an important role in Kaufmann's building Fallingwater and possibly in his son's later attachment to th...

She reflects, At every step along the way, Ken really knows what he wants and where he wants the film to go. It is quite inspiring to see that focus and direction able to marshall all these forces...working on Baseball, we could do a lot of back and forth really in the editing room...I wont say were interchangeable because that is not really right....in the end we each have slightly different sensibilities and that is what made the film what it is.
