Taliesin

1911Spring Green, United StatesUNESCO

Taliesin
Wright’s own home–studio complex on Wisconsin hills—expanded and rebuilt over half a century. Roof lines following terrain and use of stone and wood read as lived organic architecture. Better observed as a house that kept growing than as a finished object.

Highlights

  • Meeting the hills — Does the building sit on the land, or become part of it?
  • Studio and dwelling — Where does the work–life boundary blur?
