The architect of the Guggenheim Museum, Fallingwater, the Robie House, and the Johnson Wax Administration Building, Frank Lloyd Wright once said, ";You do not learn by way of your successes. No one does."; Just as he flouted convention in a series of astonishing buildings, so did Wright go against the grain in his career as a writer and lecturer. On subjects as diverse as McCarthyism and cement blocks, he produced countless lectures and articles, a half-dozen books, and a remarkable series of informal talks delivered to his apprentices on Sunday mornings.Bruce Brooks Pfeiffer, the author of several collections of Wright’s writings and Director of the Frank Lloyd Wright Archives, has culled more than two hundred quotations from a wide range of sources, drawing heavily on transcripts of the Sunday talks. The themes to which Wright returned most often serve as the book’s sections: the value of architecture takes precedence, but topics such as government and the ge

Frank Lloyd Wright Selected Houses No. 6 (English and Japanese Edition)

Edgar Kaufmann Residence - Fallingwater- was completed in 1939. Jutting over the rich flow of a mountain stream deep in the West Pennsylvanian forest, this house embodies the quintessence of Wright's architectural concept. Familiar techniques since the times of 'Prairie Houses' such as harmony with nature, open plan emphasizing on horizontality, continuity between indoor and outdoor, or walls opened by means of windows, but also the idea behind the structure/construction method of supporting 1/3 of the building with cantilevers are akin to the modernity in 'Usonian Houses'. Such maturity of quality makes this house a magnum opus among Wright's works, one of the best in all modern architecture.
