Hardcover. Brown cloth, orange and color illus. dust jacket, 334 pp., color and BW illus. Issued in conjunction with a series of 1998-2000 exhibitions of work by American architect Frank Lloyd Wright. "An innovative survey of Wright's career focused upon the nine basic building types found in the Living City and pursuing the evolution of each throughout his career. The text and illustrations combine to reveal his lifelong ideal of organic architecture, in which he envisioned each building, its interior, and the furniture and fixtures within it, as well as the surrounding landscape or town." (dj) Includes a chronology and a bibliography, in addition to the many views of plans and finished projects. G (Ex-art library, with i.d. marks on book block edges and outermost pages; moderate edge wear to dj, with a few small tears and a few small missing bits; interior is clean.).

Hardcover. Cantaloupe-colored stamped cloth, color illus. embossed dust jacket, 183 pp., many color illus. "Located near Palm Springs, California, in a community known as Rancho Mirage, Sunnylands was built in the early 1960s by Walter and Leonore Annenberg, two of America's leading philanthropists. Envisioned by noted California architect A. Quincy Jones and the renowned interior design team of William Haines and Ted Graber, the estate has come to be regarded as an icon of midcentury modernism. . [This book] tells the story of the celebrated home -- how it came to be commissioned, details of its design and construction, acquisition of the extensive collections of art and objects, changes over the years -- and includes comments by noted guests. A foreword by Kathleen Hall Jamieson positions Sunnylands within its geographical and social setting, and an afterword by the late Anne d'Harnoncourt provides a firsthand account of what being there was like. New photographs and drawings commissioned especially for the book expand upon archival plans and photographs to complete this richly detailed portrait of an extraordinary place."
