Frank Lloyd Wright

Resumen del Ebook

Widely thought to be the greatest American architect, Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959) was a true pioneer, both artistically and technically. At a time when reinforced concrete and steel were considered industrial building materials, Wright boldly made use of them to build private homes. His prairie house concept - that of a low, sprawling home based upon a simple L or T figure - was the driving force behind some of his most famous houses and became a model for rural architecture across America. Wright’s designs for office and public buildings were equally groundbreaking and unique. From Fallingwater to New York’s Guggenheim Museum, his works are among the most famous in the history of architecture.

El saber de la arquitectura y de las artes

Este libro sigue el alzado de ese espectro que se ha convenido en denominar el saber de las artes, fortalecido con el paso del tiempo, desde los frágiles tanteos de sus inicios hasta la clara y destacada conciencia de su identidad, ya culminado el siglo XVII, que nos pone a las puertas de la Ilustración.
