Frank Lloyd Wright (1867–1959) gilt als der bedeutendste amerikanische Architekt und hat mit seinem einflussreichen Werk die Moderne geprägt. TASCHEN widmet ihm eine dreibändige Monographie, die alle seine rund 1.100 realisierten und unrealisierten Entwürfe behandelt. In Zusammenarbeit mit den Frank Lloyd Wright Archives in Taliesin, Arizona, wird Wrights bemerkenswertes Leben und Werk gewürdigt. Der Band beginnt mit Wrights Jahren in Japan, insbesondere am Imperial Hotel, gefolgt von persönlichen Turbulenzen. 1922 ließ er sich von seiner ersten Frau Catherine scheiden und heiratete Miriam Noel, die ihn jedoch bald darauf verließ. In dieser schwierigen Phase belastete ein Feuer in Taliesin seine bereits angespannte finanzielle Situation, was zu Zwangsvollstreckungen führte. Um seinen Lebensunterhalt zu sichern, begann Wright, Zeitungsartikel zu schreiben und veröffentlichte 1932 seine gefeierte Autobiografie. Trotz der Weltwirtschaftskrise und unvollendeter Entwürfe entwickelte er neue Konzepte, darunter die Blockbauweise, die zu einzigartigen Werken wie dem Ennis-Haus führte. 1936 vollendete er das Herbert-Jacobs-Haus mit seinen usonischen Techniken, die erschwingliches Wohnen für Familien ermöglichen sollten. Nach seinem Umzug nach Arizona schuf er mit seinen Studenten Taliesin West und erlebte eine Wiederbelebung seines Schaffens, die in den ikonischen Fallingwater und Johnson Buildings gipfelte.

The first major presentation in decades of the visionary drawings of the artist-architect and master designer. Frank Lloyd Wright was an architect of vast and unprecedented vision, whose work is not only still admired by the critics and carefully studied by historians but is also widely beloved. Comfortable spaces, humanly scaled, with extraordinary attention to detail-as seen in a range of architectural forms-are at the center of Wright’s enduring appeal. This vision and attention is nowhere more evident than in the drawings. It has been said that had Wright left us only drawings, and not his buildings as well, he would still be celebrated for his brilliant artistry, and this is borne out here. Even more significant, and shown here as never before, are the magical first moments of invention and inspiration-Wright’s earliest sketches, some never before published-which offer unique insight into the mind of the master architect. Frank Lloyd Wright Designs is the most important and comprehensive book to be published on the drawings, designs, conceptual sketches, elevations, and plans of Wright, with particular emphasis on the development of certain important projects. It includes the best-known and beloved projects-like Fallingwater, The Coonley House, Midway Gardens, the Guggenheim, the Imperial Hotel-as well as a range of intriguing, unfamiliar, and previously unpublished drawings by Wright.

Focusing on the groundbreaking projects of Frank Lloyd Wright, this overview encapsulates the architect's entire career, showcasing his most ingenious works in a concise format. It draws from TASCHEN's earlier monograph and benefits from unrestricted access to the Frank Lloyd Wright Archives, offering a comprehensive look at his innovative designs and contributions to architecture.
