Frank Lloyd Wright, overhead architectural detail, Marin County Civic Center, Northern California, USA.
Taliesin is the architect Frank Lloyd Wright's home, studio, and school of architecture situated on a prairie hill in Spring Green, Wisconsin. The building in this photo is his home that he lived with his family. The original building, TALIESIN I was built in 1911. It was partly ruined twice by fires in 1914 and 1925. After each fire, restorations and extension works were done. The new additions are named TALIESIN II and III respectively. Mr. Wright and his family lived on this premise year-round until he built an annex, Taliesin West in Arizona in 1937.
During the move from the Midwest to the West Coast, I had an opportunity to tour this famous World Heritage Site. Compared to the prairie-style houses lined on level Forest Avenue, Oak Park, IL, I had a different first impression when the façade caught me in the eye from the highway. Just like most of southern Wisconsin's land undulates gently, Taliesin is built on a rolling hill beyond a cornfield, far from the highway. Even so, the façade really blends well with the surroundings and the landform. The parallel straight lines of this architecture lined above your eye level looked as beautiful as the ones in Oak Park.

our travel to the falling water house by Frank Lloyd Wright. An exceptional architecture masterpiece finished in 1939. The tourist infrastructure is not really devoted to architecture and urban design. Uniontown, PA was our stay overnight. The town is empty and the wall-mart and urban sprawl just happens outside... a typical rural american phenomenon, I guess...

The last Frank Lloyd Wright house to be built was constructed on Petra Island in Lake Mahopac, NY. Finsihed in 2009 the house took 4 years to build. Originally designed in the 1950 for the previous owners of the island, it was not constructed at the time the drawings were commissioned. The island's new owners (the Massaro family) got permission from the Wright institute to use the plans and finally build the house that was designed specifically for the spot on which it now stands. the house was informally dubbed "the whale" in honor of the massive rock formation (which looks like a whale) on which the house is perched.
