“A doctor can bury his mistakes, but an architect can only advise his clients to plant vines.” ― Frank Lloyd Wright Learn more here: dwell.com/@frank_lloyd_wright
Frank Lloyd Wright (born Frank Lincoln Wright, June 8, 1867 – April 9, 1959) was an American architect who believed in designing structures that were in harmony with their environment, a philosophy he called organic architecture. This philosophy was best exemplified by Fallingwater (1935). Wright was a leader of the Prairie School movement of architecture and developed the concept of the Usonian home, his unique vision for urban planning in the United States. His creative life spanned more than 70 years.
