This book presents twenty-five of the most renowned and significant buildings of America's premier architect, from his early Prairie work in Oak Park, Illinois, in the 1890s to his daring creations of the 1940s and 1950s. Published in association with the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation, this superbly illustrated volume features previously unpublished photographs for which renowned architectural photographers Michael Freeman and Paul Rocheleau gained unprecedented access to some of Wright's masterworks. The book examines in unsurpassed detail a selection of Wright's architecture that covers the phenomenal range of his work, including such internationally famous buildings as the Home and Studio in Oak Park, Taliesin West in Scottsdale, Arizona, Fallingwater in Mill Run, Pennsylvania, and the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York, as well as several lesser-known residences such as the Auldbrass Plantation in South Carolina and the Kenneth Laurent house in Rockford, Illinois. The works featured here are succinctly documented by one of Wright's former apprentices, with text that details the development and execution of each commission. Also included throughout is a selection of Wright's extensive writings, unpublished talks, and private letters. Pfeiffer wrote or edited more than 50 books in order to guarantee that the story of Wright's life would be remembered with nuance and detail. Each of those works drew from the massive collection of Wright's own drawings and papers that Pfeiffer organized and preserved at Taliesin West for decades. Pfeiffer was so drawn to Wright that by the time Pfeiffer was just 18, he'd already migrated to Taliesin West to join the Frank Lloyd Wright School of Architecture, as it was called then. Pfeiffer studied with Wright for the next seven years, working alongside the other, mostly older apprentices. Pfeiffer felt that Wright's impromptu lessons and more formal morning talks were "too valuable to perish," so he decided to record them. Pfeiffer eventually collected more than 250 hours of Frank Lloyd Wright's teachings on tape and would transcribe them all. Pfeiffer settled in Scottsdale for good, playing an integral role in the life of the Taliesin Fellowship, where design work, study, sleep, and property repairs, as well as communal meals and entertainment, were all woven together. Mr. and Mrs. Wright were both deeply appreciative of music. Pfeiffer shared this affinity for music, and played piano. Transcribing and arranging original compositions would become a big part of his enduring friendship with Olgivanna. When Frank Lloyd Wright died in 1959, many of the architect's original drawings were still in daily circulation among the apprentices at Taliesin. The students would pull the originals out of drawers in the drafting studio for reference, then stick them back haphazardly when they were done. But Olgivanna had an eye to preserving her husband's legacy and quickly discontinued such practices. She worked with the apprentices to gather her husband's myriad letters, papers, and project materials-hundreds of thousands of items from Taliesin East, in Spring Green, Wisconsin, and West-then pack them up in boxes, and moved them to a Bekins-brand storage facility in Phoenix for safekeeping. For years, the trove of material sat in that warehouse. Pfeiffer said he'd never intended to become an archivist, but in the years after Wright's death, he recognized the immense need at hand. Scholars around the world were becoming increasingly curious about the materials Wright left behind and hungry to work on various, often ambitious, publishing projects. Apprentices were anxious, as were new owners of Wright homes, to discover anything they could about specific buildings. Inquiries began to pour in. When Pfeiffer spoke with Olgivanna about the imperative.…
