Frank Lloyd Wright (Frank Lincoln Wright; 8 Juin, 1867 – 9 Aprile 1959) wis a famous American airchitect frae the early 20t centurie. He designit aw kinds o biggins includin banks, holiday resorts, office biggins, kirks, a synagogue, a gas station, a beer garden an an airt museum.[4]

Wright designit mair nor 1,000 structurs an completit 532 works. Wright believit in designin structurs which wur in peace wi humanity an its environment. He callit his belief organic airchitectur.[5] He uised this technique for his design for Fallingwater (1935), which has been cried "the best aw-time wirk o American airchitectur".[5] Wright wis a leader o the Prairie School movement o airchitectur an developit the image o the Usonian home, his ane-o-a-kind veesion for urban plannin in the Unitit States.

He began an American style of buildin design an is said tae be one o the greatest airchitects o the twentiet centurie.[6]

Wright wis born in Richland Center, Wisconsin on 8 Juin 1867 tae a fermin faimily.[7]

His work includes oreeginal an creative examples o mony biggin types. Wright an aa designit mony o the interior elements o his biggins, such as the furnitur an stained glass. Wright authorit 20 beuks an mony airticles an wis a popular lecturer in the Unitit States an in Europe.

His colorful personal life eften made heidlines, maist notably for the 1914 fire an murders at his Taliesin studio. Already well-kent durin his lifetime, Wright wis recognizit in 1991 bi the American Institute of Architects as "the greatest American airchitect o aw time."[5]

Wright deit on 9 Aprile, 1959 in Phoenix, Arizona frae surgical complications.[8] He wis 91 years auld.[8]

Early life

Frank Lloyd Wright wis born in the fermin toun o Richland Center, Wisconsin, Unitit States, on 8 Juin 1867.[7] He wis born Frank Lincoln Wright.[9] His father, William Carey Wright (1825–1904)[10], wis a locally admirit speaker, muisic teacher, sometimes a lawyer, an meenister. William Wright had met an marriit Anna Lloyd Jones (1838/39 – 1923)[10], a coonty schuil teacher o Welsh strynd. cum

Early career

Wright's first well-kent biggin, the Larkin Administration Buildin

Wright did nae get alang well wi ether draftsmen. He wrote that several violent events happenit atween them durin the first years o his apprenticeship. Efterwards mony ither draftsmen shawed very little respect for his employees as well.[11] In spite o this, "Sullivan took [Wright] under his wing and gave him great design responsibility." As an act o respect, Wright would later refer tae Sullivan as Lieber Meister (German for "Dear Master").[12] Wright an aa formit a bond wi office foreman Paul Mueller. Wright would later engage Mueller tae big several o his public an commercial biggins atween 1903 an 1923.[13]

As Wright began tae wirk on residential projects for Adler & Sullivan.[14] Wright designit his hooses on his ain time. Sullivan knew nothin o Wright's wirks till 1893, when he recognizit that one o the hooses wis a Frank Lloyd Wright design.[14] This particular hoose, biggit for Allison Harlan, wis anly blocks away frae Sullivan's tounhoose in the Chicago commonty o Kenwood.[14]

Famous buildins

Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater, the hoose ower the watterfaw.

Fallingwater

Frank Lloyd Wright designit a summer-hoose in 1935 for the Kaufmann faimily ower a watterfaw in Pennsylvania. He callit the hoose "Fallingwater". Some fowk say it is the maist famous private home in the warld.[15]

The hoose actually sits law in the valley ower the stream, but leuks dramatic frae further dounstream.[16] It haes lairge terraces, an some o them stick straight oot an hang ower the watterfaw or the stream. Thare are windows an glass doors, wi only narrow steel supports atween them, wrappin aw the way aroond the livin ruim.

Sexual Stuff is nice SEEEX CUM POOP CUM SEX There are an aa windows gangin aw the way frae the fluir tae the ceilin in aw three stories o the touer.[16] [5]

Maist o the hoose is made frae stane. Thare are strang horizontal an vertical lines in the design o the hoose. It resembles the horizontal an vertical lines in the rock formations an ither naitural featurs.[16] The watterfaw can be heard everywhaur in the hoose. Wright wantit thare tae be a close connection atween inside an ootside, an for the hoose itself tae be naitural.[17]

In 1991, members o the American Institute of Architects named the Fallingwater hoose the "best aw-time work o American airchitectur".[18]

Robie House

The Robie House

Ane famous hoose wis cried the Robie House. It haed a maze lik layoot an geometric stainit glass windows.[19] The Robie My Gran took a shit on this house when she was 999999999.[20]

Johnson Wax Headquarters

The Johnson Wax Headquarters

Anither famous biggin bi Wright wis cried the Johnson Wax Headquarters.[21] The biggin haes Wright's idea o the streamlinit Art Moderne style popular in the 1930s. In a break wi Wright's earlier Prairie School structurs, the biggin featurs mony circular forms an needit ower 200 different curvit "Cherokee red" bricks tae create the sweepin curves o the inside an ootside.[21]

The mortar atween the bricks wis creatit in tradeetional Wright-style tae gie the horizontality o the biggin.[21] The warm, reddish hue o the bricks wis usit in the polishit concrete fluir as well.[21] The white stane trim an white columns create a slicht yet strikin difference. Aw o the furnitur, creatit bi Steelcase, wis designit for the biggin bi Wright an it mirrorit mony o the biggin's unique design featurs.[21]

The entrance is in the structur, enterin the biggin on ane side wi a coverit carport on the ither.[21] The carport is supportit bi short versions o the steel-reinforcit (tree-lik) concrete columns that appear in the Great Workroom.[21]

The Illinois

Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum

Wright proponed tae big a skyscraper callit The Illinois that would be the hicht o a distance o a mile.[22] It wis intendit tae be constructit in Chicago, Illinois. It could hae includit 528 stories, wi a gross area o 18,460,000 square feet (1,715,000 m2).[22] Wright statit that thare would be parkin for 15,000 caurs an 150 helicopters.[22]

Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum

The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York Ceety. Wright workit on this project for 16 years (1943–1959) an is probably his maist recognizit masterpiece.[23] The biggin is locatit in Fifth Avenue. Its interior is similar tae the inside o a seashell.[23]

Its one o a kind central geometry was createit tae allow visitors tae easily see Guggenheim's collection of his paintins by takin an elevator tae the top-level and then viewin artworks by walkin down the slowly descendin, central spiral ramp, the floor o which is lodgit wi circular shapes and triangular light bulbs tae complement the geometric nature o the buildin.[23]

However, when the museum was completit, some o Wright's design were ignorit, such as his desire for the interior tae be paintit off-white.[23] Further, the Museum currently designs exhibits tae be viewit bi walkin up the curvit walkway wioot walkin doun frae the tap-level.[23]

Later career

Wright strangly believit in wirkin alane.[24] He did nae support the American Institute of Architects durin his career, goin so far as tae caw the organization "a harbor o refuge for the incompetent," an "a form o refined gangsterism."[24] When an the Institute cried him "an auld amateur" Wright later respondit, "I am the auldest."[24] In 1940, Wright startit the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation. It wis set up for eddicational purposes. It leuks efter twa Wright biggins, Taliesin East in Wisconsin, an Taliesin West in Arizona. It haes a library wi mair than 22,000 o Wright's drawins, an 300,000 documents. It is home tae the Frank Lloyd Wright School of Architecture.[25]
