Purchase options and add-ons

Frank Lloyd Wright is not only synonymous with architecture, his name is also synonymous with the American house in the twentieth century. In particular, his residential work has been the subject of continuing interest and controversy. Wright's Fallingwater (1935), the seminal masterpiece perched over a waterfall deep in the Pennsylvania highlands, is perhaps the best-known private house in the history of the world. In fact, Wright's houses-from his Prairie style Robie House (1906) in Chicago, to the Storer (1923) and Freeman (1923) houses in Los Angeles, and Taliesen West (1937) in the Arizona desert-are all touchstones of modern architecture. For the first time, all 289 extant houses are shown here in exquisite color photographs. Along with Weintraub's stunning photos and a selection of floor plans and archival images, the book includes text and essays by several leading Wright scholars. Frank Lloyd Wright: The Houses is an event of great importance and a major contribution to the literature on this titan of modern architecture.

I should have listened to other reviewers, binding is garbage
I was super excited to get this book, and one page in the binding is busted. I had seen other reviews that reported the same issue, and I should have thought twice about buying this. I bought a second as a gift, and I really really hope that one doesn’t have the same issue. I’m gunna find out this weekend.

    As I travel I am trying to visit Houses designed by Frank Lloyd Wright that are open to the public as featured in the book Wright Sites by Joel Hoglund Ed. Many of the houses designed by Wright are not open to the public. This book Frank Lloyd Wright The Houses by Alan Hess allows Wright enthusiasts to see many of these homes. The photographs by Alan Weintraub are excellent and show the beauty of Wright designed spaces. This book surpassed my expectations. I thought it would be mainly pictures, which would at least allow me to experience non public Wright sites. The included copy is informative, especially concerning the evolution of Wright’s thinking. This is an excellent book for anyone interested in architecture.
