Summary:

"Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959) had a shaping influence on the architecture of our time throughout the world as only very few other architects beside him. His structures - developed from landscape, function, material, and construction - are highly individual and independent of the stylistic developments of modern architecture. The book highlights the fundamental aspects of this charismatic architect's work that are relevant from a contemporary perspective: his redefining of the house and urban development, the effect of order and discovery in his designs, the poetic force of his buildings and, lastly, their cultural permeation seen, for instance, in Japanese influences."--BOOK JACKET.
