Dust jacket protected in a mylar cover. Richly illustrated with colour plates. *** "Known primarily for his iconic midwestern buildings, Frank Lloyd Wright found in the western United States a new canvas on which to apply his theories of organic architecture. There he found radically different climates, abundant but unfamiliar building materials - even a different quality of light, which he sought to incorporate into his progressive designs. Surveying twenty-three projects in all the western states outside California, Frank Lloyd Wright: The Western Work shows the profound leaps Wright made in his designs during the second half of his remarkable career. / Dixie Legler is a curator, author, and editor of the Frank Lloyd Wright Quarterly. She lives in Washington State." - Publisher. Size: 4to. Collectible.
