Taliesin West

For the end of the recap of my Southwest study quarter, I had to go with the iconic Taliesin West by Frank Lloyd Wright. This house and studio was built later in his career in 1937 (as opposed to his first house and studio in Oak Park that I posted about a while back). He used it as his winter home (staying at Taliesin in Wisconsin during the warmer months). It definitely shows his mature signature style but is also influenced by the desert environment in which it is located. #ucsouthwest2005 #southwestusa #scottsdaleaz #franklloydwright #organicarchitecture #architecture #worldheritagesite
