A little inspiration from Frank Lloyd Wright

Image source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Frank_Lloyd_Wright_portrait.jpg

Believed to be one of the greatest American architects of all time, Frank Lloyd Wright was a pioneer in our profession on many levels.  He designed more than 1,000 structures and 500 projects over his career, which included original and innovative offices, churches, schools, museums and, what has inspired our firm in particular, residences.  He was a leader of the Prairie School movement of architecture and developed the concept of the Usonian home, a distinctly national style of homes meant to be affordable and practical for middle-class clients.  Wright even designed many of the interior elements of his projects, including furniture and stained glass.

After growing up in a farming town in Wisconsin and receiving a partial education from both Madison High School and the University of Wisconsin-Madison, Wright worked in Chicago for the architectural firms of Joseph Lyman Silsbee, Beers, Clay & Dutton and finally Adler & Sullivan under the direction of Louis Sullivan, before opening up his own firm in 1893.  Some of the major influences of his designs included...

  • Louis Sullivan: Wright considered him to be his "Lieber Meister" (dear master), although they parted ways on sour terms after Sullivan discovered that Wright had been designing homes on the side during his apprenticeship at Adler & Sullivan, a breach of his employment contract
  • Nature: relating to the shapes, forms, colors and patterns of plant life with a desire for his structures to be in harmony with their environment
  • Music: Wright's father was a music teacher and shared his love of music with his children, especially that of his favorite composer, Johann Sebastian Bach.
  • Japanese art, prints and buildings
Here are a few of Wrights innovative works:

The design of the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York City took Wright 16 years

Designed when Wright was 38 years old, Unity Temple was his first major public building and is considered one of the most significant projects of his career.  Wright himself said, "that was my first expression of this eternal idea which is at the center and core of all true modern architecture.  A sense of space, a new sense of space."


Image Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Robie_House.jpg

The Frederick C. Robie House in the Hyde Park neighborhood of Chicago, IL - considered to be the greatest example of the Prairie style, of which Wright was one of the leaders of the movement.  The Prairie style was the first distinctly American architectural style.  Wright designed all aspects of this home, including the interiors, windows, lighting, rugs and furniture.

Fallingwater was one of the most famous homes designed by Wright for the Kaufmann family. In 1991, members of the AIA named it the best all-time work of American architecture. The house stretches out over a 30' waterfall and captured everyone's imagination immediately.  Fallingwater appeared on the cover of Time Magazine in January of '38.

Here are a few Visbeen Associates' projects inspired by the work of Frank Lloyd Wright...

Fallingwater by Frank Lloyd Wright

Ryan in our office recently took a tour of one of the most famous homes designed by architect Frank Lloyd Wright called Fallingwater, located in rural southwestern Pennsylvania.  The home was designed by Wright in 1935 for the Edgar Kaufmann family, president of Kaufmann's Department Store in Pittsburgh.  This unique home is on the Smithsonian's Life List of "28 Places to visit before you die," it was designated as a National Landmark in 1966, and in 1991, members of the American Institute of Architects (AIA) named it the "best all-time work of American architecture."

The most recognizable vantage point of this famous residence
Cantilever Balcony and staircase going down to the water below the home.
One of the most unique aspects of this home is the fact that it was actually built into the rock surrounding it, on top of an active waterfall
A modern marvel at the time, a cantilever staircase
Unique interiors with furnishings designed by Wright as well.  The floor is made up of the rock the home is built upon and to the left of the fireplace is a globe that can be filled with water and swiveled in front of the open fire to heat.  There is a spigot at the bottom to distribute the hot water.  
This glassed-in area is retractable to reveal the cantilever stairs to the stream below.
Interesting angles everywhere you look.
Notice the built-in desk has a special notch to allow the glass door to the left to swing open, hearing the natural sounds of the moving water below.
These windows were another engineering marvel of the time with both sides of the corner opening out and the screens opening in, leaving the corner with no structure obstructing the view.
Guest house with unique staircase.
Every view displays another dimension of the design of this masterpiece.
Covered staircase connecting the main home to the guest and servant quarters.
The home was constructed using upside down T-shaped beams integrated into concrete slab.  Some sources say that the contractor was doubtful that there was enough reinforcement and quietly doubled the reinforcing steel specified by Wright.

Stay tuned next month for our "little inspiration" series focusing on Frank Lloyd Wright, one of the greatest American architects of all time.

A little inspiration from Greene and Greene

Another architect that has paved the way for Visbeen Associates?  It was actually a pair of brother architects - Charles & Henry Greene.  Their custom residences and ultimate bungalows are prime examples of the Arts & Crafts, otherwise known as Craftsman, movement.  After completing education at Washington University and MIT, and having apprenticeships at firms in Boston, Massachusettes, the brothers relocated with their family to Pasadena, California and established their firm, Greene and Greene Architects, in 1894.  Their style was distinctly Arts & Crafts influenced by Japanese architecture.  One of their most famous bungalows was the Gamble House, designed in 1908, for David & Mary Gamble, of Proctor & Gamble (check out our Architectural Tutorial on the Craftsman Style for more information). Much of Greene-and-Greene-designed architecture was incredibly custom, where even the light fixtures and furniture pieces were designed specifically for each space.  Here are a few of their notable works...

The Gamble House


The Pratt House - considered "structural poetry" by Architectural Digest


The Robert R. Blacker House, an extravagant home that cost upwards of $2.49 million dollars in todays dollars.


Here are a few notable Visbeen Associates' works that were inspired by this dynamic duo...


The Amblewood is probably our best example of Greene & Greene inspired work. Arts and Crafts style meets the modern world in this well-planned home designed for a small, narrow lot. The Amblewood's low pitched roofs, interesting overhangs and natural tones on the exterior blend with the environment and can be carried into the interior.
