Frank Lloyd wright

Taliesin

I was driving west towards Spring Green, Wisconsin. I followed the winding road through the valley surrounded by wooded hills. Amazing beauty all around. I was on my way to Taliesin, Frank Lloyd Wright’s estate. I took the two hour tour. It was interesting and the guide was well informed. However the out building, studio and main house were what you would expect. Lots of wood and stone, lots of built-ins, lots of Asian art, and unpredictable architecture. What impressed me the most was the nature surrounding the structures. The setting was stunning. What I learned was that me Wright was very in tune with nature and was conscious of the beauty outside. And of course he tried to incorporate his buildings within their surrounding. 

I think I sound a bit incoherent. I’m sitting in a Ramada Inn in Richland center after a long hot day.
