Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very good. Presumed First Edition, First printing. The format is approximately 6.25 inches by 8.25 inches. 96 Pages. Illustrations (color). Index. Frank Lloyd Wright (June 8, 1867 April 9, 1959) was an American architect, designer, writer, and educator. He designed more than 1,000 structures over a creative period of 70 years. Wright played a key role in the architectural movements of the twentieth century, influencing architects worldwide through his works and hundreds of apprentices in his Taliesin Fellowship. Wright believed in designing in harmony with humanity and the environment, a philosophy he called organic architecture. This philosophy was exemplified in Fallingwater (1935), which has been called "the best all-time work of American architecture." Always creative, Frank Lloyd Wright was renowned for the surprising and extraordinary ways in which he used glass in the buildings and furniture he designed. From the stylized art glass of his famous Prairie houses to the pierced-textile block of his California homes to his masterpiece, the Guggenheim Museum in New York, see how the architect incorporated glass with his usual creative flair and attention to the tiniest detail. 15 case studies focus on some of his finest buildings, and a tour of another 20 buildings highlights his spectacular work with glass. A wonderful tribute to one of America's greatest treasures, this volume is an intriguing exploration for anyone interested in seeing how the placement of windows and glass can dramatically affect the design of a building. Doreen Ehrlich is a professional writer and lecturer with over 25 years' experience. She has been interested in Wright's work for over a decade and has traveled extensively in the United States visiting his many buildings. Her previously published worked include many books on art and architecture in the 20th century as well as a previous book on Frank Lloyd Wright's use of glass. Glass is the material that, perhaps above all others, defines the work of architect Frank Lloyd Wright. From the art glass of the early Prairie Houses to the dome of the Guggenheim Museum in New York, his many innovative designs earned him a reputation as one of the boldest and most pioneering architects of his time. Throughout his career, Wright incorporated glass into his buildings to create wonderful, naturally lit open spaces, always staying faithful to his "organic" philosophy and fundamental respect for nature. His belief in breaking down the traditional boundaries between the outside and inside and his love of glass led him to produce an array of stunning, decorative glass designs for both windows and furnishings. Widely copied, his ideas transformed domestic design and created new models for living both in the United States and throughout the world. This illustrated book showcases Wright's work with glass. It includes a chronological survey, with detailed pictorial accounts of his use of glass in a variety of buildings, from his own home and studio at Oak Park in 1889 to the Marin County Civic Center, California of 1957. Featuring Wright's most innovative and beautiful glass design, Frank Lloyd Wright at a Glance: Glass is a fitting tribute to Wright's genius. …
