FRANK LLOYD

WRIGHT
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".
