The Wright Way

Topic Presenter: Thomas A. Heinz


Discover the life and works of one of the most important and prolific architects in history, Frank Lloyd Wright, at his winter home in Phoenix, Arizona.

Discover firsthand the works of Flrank Lloyd Wright with an expert's guidance.

Frank Lloyd Wright designed hundreds of houses. While his public buildings are arguably the most innovative, unfortunately he did not construct many; the vast majority of his projects were private residences. Fortunately, these private residences have escaped the destruction that faced many of his public works.

What innate understanding allowed him to respond to his clients needs to create rooms that flowed into one another? What ideas can you take from this genius to help elevate and enrich your human spirit today?
