Frank Lloyd Wright

The SC Johnson Building’s one-half acre Great Workroom in Racine, Wisconsin, is known for its tree-shaped columns, which Wright referred to as "dendriform.

The Kiva Room, a half submerged underground space, doubled as a Conference Room and Movie Theater for the Taliesin Fellowship. Today, the space displays beauty and culture through craft and detailing.

The Cabaret Theater, used for music and theater, displays the thickness of the exterior walls with buttressing structural supports extending to the roof.

Built in 1937, Taliesin West was an experiment in desert living that evolved at the hands of master architect Frank Lloyd Wright and his apprentices until he passed in 1959. Conceptualized as a refuge from the harsh winters of the Midwest, the complex—which grew to include a drafting studio, dining facilities, three theaters, a workshop, Wright’s office and private living quarters, and apprentice and staff residences—takes direct inspiration from the arid landscape.
