"Four decades after his death, Frank Lloyd
Wright is still considered the most significant architect of the
20th century. During his 70 year career, Wright’s distinctive
designs were meant to reflect an American identity as an
alternative to traditional European designs. Wright designed
more than 500 houses, churches, bridges and other structures. He
was also prolific in creating furniture, fabrics and housewares.
An educator, author of twenty books, and head of an
architectural firm, Wright profoundly influenced modern
architectural theory and practice."
