On Frank Lloyd Wright's Concrete Adobe

Irving Gill, Rudolph Schindler and the American Southwest

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The book provides a unique, in-depth and critical analysis of Wright's concrete block houses, set within their historical, biographical and theoretical contexts. In particular, it shows the full impact upon Wright of his contemporaries, architects Irving Gill and Rudolph Schindler. In doing so, it allows a full appreciation of Wright's, Gill's and Schindler's buildings beyond their architectonic and experiential qualities.
