Book excerpt: Wright Panorama amplifies the artistry of Frank Lloyd Wright's architecture with expanse. In the more than 140 Tom Schiff panoramic photographs contained in Wright Panorama, Schiff reveals nearly eighty extant buildings in Wright's oeuvre from a unique perspective. Wright Panorama exhibits the great architect's prolific, varied, and iconic body of work, pulling from it a new shape and offering it renewed appeal. Eric Lloyd Wright's compelling foreword to Wright Panorama introduces Tom Schiff and four noteworthy Frank Lloyd Wright scholarsCara Armstrong, Scott W. Perkins, Margo Stipe, and Marta Wojcik. Since Wright's architecture embraced his strong belief in and respect for Nature, these scholars draw from this and contribute essays from a new nature-centric perspective. They further our understanding of the ways each of the natural elementsearth, air, fire, and water influences Wright's life and work. In addition, these four essays utilize Schiff 's images to more fully illustrate the involvement of the natural elements on Wright's organic architecture. In his preface to Wright Panorama, Schiff conveys his desire to acknowledge the "true" as well as extend our framework of seeing, of vision. Schiff likes that his panoramic photography is "true to the landscape as seen by the naked eye" and is both "expansive" and "challenging." He sees the resulting panoramic image in Wright Panorama as "a unique way to see Frank Lloyd Wright's interiors and exteriors, from all vantage points, in one image." Wright Panorama is a continual discovery: A new way of viewing, a new way of discovering the architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright.

Download or read book Frank Lloyd Wright The Rooms written by and published by Rizzoli Publications. This book was released on 2014-10-21 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INDIEFAB Book of the Year Awards -- 2014 BRONZE Winner for Architecture An invitation into the evocative, human-scaled, and artful interiors designed by Wright. Frank Lloyd Wright: The Rooms presents the warm interior spaces and exceptional design work of this beloved American master. Wright was an early proponent of "total design." Unsatisfied with what was available in designing a given space or home, he invented what was needed, developing a language of architectural detail and styling that is unique and which extended to the tables, bookcases, easy chairs, sofas, and cabinets; to rugs and murals; to stonework; to stained glass "light screens," which served as windows, doors, and room partitions; and lighting. This approach was manifested distinctly in each of his residential projects. This book offers the reader an immersion into this work by means of extraordinary artful detail in intimately explored rooms and spaces. From the Oak Park Home and Studio in Illinois to the majestically appointed Darwin D. Martin House with its abundance of art glass, including Wright’s famous "Tree of Life" and "Wisteria" designs, this luxurious volume ranges over the whole of Wright’s oeuvre. It highlights a number of Wright masterpieces, including Hollyhock House, the mysterious Aztec-like home and arts complex built on a hill in Los Angeles; the Dana House, with its luminous "butterfly" transom glass; and the fabled living room at Fallingwater.
Download or read book Frank Lloyd Wright written by Alan Hess and published by Rizzoli International Publications. This book was released on 2007 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The mid-twentieth century was one of the most productive and inventive periods in Frank Lloyd Wright's career, producing such masterworks as the Guggenheim Museum, Price Tower, Fallingwater, the Usonian Houses, and the Lovness House, as well as a vast array of innovative furniture and object design. With a wide variety of shapes and forms-ranging from honeycombs to spirals-this period defies simplistic definition. Simplicity, democratic designs, and organic forms characterize Mid-Century Modern, and, mentoring such mid-century talents as Richard Neutra and Rudolph Schindler among others, Wright was one of its most influential proponents. Frank Lloyd Wright: Mid-Century Modern is a comprehensive examination of an under-explored period in Wright's career, a time dating from roughly 1935 to 1958, during which this master architect was at his most daring and innovative."--Jacket

Download or read book Frank Lloyd Wright Designs written by Bruce Brooks Pfeiffer and published by Rizzoli Publications. This book was released on 2011-10-04 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first major presentation in decades of the visionary drawings of the artist-architect and master designer. Frank Lloyd Wright was an architect of vast and unprecedented vision, whose work is not only still admired by the critics and carefully studied by historians but is also widely beloved. Comfortable spaces, humanly scaled, with extraordinary attention to detail-as seen in a range of architectural forms-are at the center of Wright’s enduring appeal. This vision and attention is nowhere more evident than in the drawings. It has been said that had Wright left us only drawings, and not his buildings as well, he would still be celebrated for his brilliant artistry, and this is borne out here. Even more significant, and shown here as never before, are the magical first moments of invention and inspiration-Wright’s earliest sketches, some never before published-which offer unique insight into the mind of the master architect. Frank Lloyd Wright Designs is the most important and comprehensive book to be published on the drawings, designs, conceptual sketches, elevations, and plans of Wright, with particular emphasis on the development of certain important projects. It includes the best-known and beloved projects-like Fallingwater, The Coonley House, Midway Gardens, the Guggenheim, the Imperial Hotel-as well as a range of intriguing, unfamiliar, and previously unpublished drawings by Wright.
