This book is one of the last projects he completed when he was broken down and discarded, out of fashion and left behind by the International Style. But his apprentice, Frank Lloyd Wright, went on to embrace and become the most well-known practitioner of the Prairie School and to give an alternative approach to modernist architecture in America, embracing craftsmanship over mass production.

Visited Taliesin in the fall. Strongly recommend! Wrote about it here: https://www.learningproducers.com/blog/taliesin-the-forging-of-style

I want to get there soon! Probably Taliesin West will happen first…

I hope if you get around to reading my piece it’ll inspire you even more to visit. I had a crazy eerie experience while I was there (no spoilers! 😂). Just badass all around.

I will read it for sure, but probably tomorrow ;)
