Frank Lloyd Wright: 50...
Frank Lloyd Wright był największym amerykańskim architektem XX wieku. W ciągu swojego długiego życia zaprojektował wiele z najbardziej uderzających i kultowych budynków w USA – budowle takie jak Fallingwater, dom wznoszący się nad wodospadem w wiejskiej Pensylwanii, Unity Temple, pierwszy całkowicie betonowy budynek publiczny w USA, oraz niesamowity nowojorski , spiralnie ukształtowane Muzeum Guggenheima. Jeden z najwybitniejszych innowatorów w historii architektury, Wright stworzył jedne z najbardziej rewolucyjnych budynków – zapierające dech w piersiach domy na preriach, siedzibę firmy Johnson Wax z przeszkleniami z pyrexu i oszałamiającymi kolumnami w kształcie grzybów, własny pustynny dom i biuro z dachem z płótna.
