FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT'S ILLINOIS: EXPLORE HIS MOST PROLIFIC STATE, FROM PRAIRIE TO USONIAN

Of Frank Lloyd Wright’s 532 completed projects, the highest concentration worldwide exists in Oak Park, Illinois, where Wright’s home and studio lies. Combining architectural history with human interest, explore 41 of the nearly 80 Frank Lloyd Wright-designed sites all within four hours of Chicago. Organized by region and covering sites built from 1889 to 1959, learn about each site's history, from its ownership and commission, to how materials were selected and the natural landscape were used. Frank Lloyd Wright's Illinois is the perfect travel guide for Wright fans visiting Illinois, looking for a self-guided tour, or for those wanting to learn more from the comfort of their own home.

This book will be available for purchase at the event.
