    I have been designing houses for almost 50 years. My office is in central NJ and 90% are 2 story colonial’s. Almost every client brings a plan and elevation from a plan book that they picked up at the local food store.

    My former employer sold a Wright chair for $18,000. It was around 1984. The Wright chair sat in the office for at least 10 years and was pushed around to every corner.

    The exhaustive and thematic imagination in every detail recorded by architectural plans is impressive here, especially in that it is only one of Wright’s 500 projects completed.

    the romans used under floor heating. they got it from the Phoenicians, so on & so on. F.L.W. was an innovator, a true renaissance man. he developed &/or improved a great many things. radiant floor heating was not one of them

    As much as I appreciate this production... Dr. Christian is trying to sound like a genius here. It's baking soda (and vinegar if you wish) people. It's been known for a loooooong time before Dr Christian was ever born. Yeah.... secret formula.....

    As a student at Purdue (BA Communications), I passed by here every day as I went to Purdue. Always wanted to see the interior, and thanks to this, I can. Thank you. Also, I gave a speech on Frank Lloyd Wright to the much younger students and showed pictures of Wright's designs and when I told them the designs were in the 20s and 30s, they were amazed.

    Frank Lloyd Wright was a strikingly handsome man throughout his life. He had a classy look and just had to be a most interesting man to converse with. Confident rather than arrogant, it is a personal trait we each would benefit from fostering. He is Modern Architecture and Design and will be known always, thousands and thousands of years to come, he will hold his due place in History.

      You are correct,Beth Bartlett,on everything you said.I visited one of his homes & he was bigger than life because his presence was everywhere.His genius as an architect & bigger-than-life persona can't be argued

    Drop the "Lincoln," please: despite its repeated appearance as Wright's supposed middle name, it has no basis in fact. It seems to have been the invention of Brendan Gill, in "Many Masks," a work which has few friends today in the world of legitimate Wright scholarship.
