- Synopsis
- America&’s most famous architect, Frank Lloyd Wright, was born in 1867 in the rolling hills of Richland Center, Wisconsin, to a family of Unitarians. Even with world-class commissions like New York City&’s Guggenheim Museum, his organic architecture remains rooted in Wisconsin&’s landscape, from affordable-housing prototypes in Milwaukee to his summer home and architecture school in rural Spring Green. This comprehensive guide to Wright&’s designs (and those of his protégés) that are open to the public—as well as insider historical information about sites now demolished, and those available for &“drive-bys&” only—is for the architecture or history fan looking for tours, overnight stays or creative inspiration.
