Unity Temple
I took this with a Minolta Maxxum QTsi film camera,
so scanned it in.
Visited this while on the Oak Park tour.
This is amazing for a person completely obcessed with lines and shapes.........
Like me!
The Creator's Words
"Why not, then, build a temple, not to GOD in that way—more sentimental than sense—but build a temple to man, appropriate to his uses as a meeting place, in which to study man himself for his God's sake? A modern meeting-house and good-time place.
Build a beautiful ROOM proportioned to this purpose. Make it beautiful in this simple sense. A natural building for natural Man."
— Frank Lloyd Wright. from Edgar Kaufmann and Ben Raeb, Ed. Frank Lloyd Wright: Writings and Buildings. p75-77, 81-82.
